Hi all

I hope someone can please help me with this one.

My end goal: To setup a dom0 Linux server, running 64bit Linux (for server with 16GB+ RAM) & have a Windows (2003 / 2008) domU running on top of it.

So far, I have tried:
CentOS 5.1 + default XEN, no luck
CentOS 5.1 + recompiled XEN 3.2, no luck

I don't even get as far as Windows CD booting up, I don't even get the console.

The I have tried Ubuntu Server 8.0.4, and had some weird, first time errors, that no one had seen, and I had to fill a bug report.

So, I have tried Fedora Core 7, and it kept hanging on bootup if I boot up with the default Xen kernel. When I bootup without Xen, it boots fine.

The server will be in a production hosting environment, so I need to know that the combination I use will be stable. Can someone please make a good recommendation for this?
