Re: [Xen-users] Best way to convert pv to hvm?

I know this doesn't help the actual question you have, but: Why would
you want to move from PV to HVM? It is decidedly not the "right"
direction to go in my opinion (and I have no political reason to say so,
rather the opposite, as I only do HVM development). PV is faster than
HVM, so why would you want to move to HVM?

It's not HVM that's the issue (just simplifies the question) just the 
requirement
for a complete disk image rather than separate partitions.  It frees me to 
switch
between technologies - at the moment Xen isn't usable for my situation so I'll 
be
temporarily using VMWare with an eye on future Xen development or possibly
Kvm when it matures.  Once you have the image you have the ability to switch 
with
only driver/environment issues to worry about.
