Hi Boris,

I recently completed this but only with a fully virtualized VM although
I assume with some config changes the system wouldn't mind going
paravirtualized.

I booted my VirtualBox VM with sidux (a live CD) and once booted I
followed the instructions posted here:

http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=2708&sid=1ea174faf5a890ab86
71b90c715d96ae

More importantly the command to run inside sidux (once you have ensured
a network connection):

dd if=/dev/hda | ssh user@host 'cat > disk.raw'

Hope this helps,
Tait Clarridge

Hi there,

Anybody here has (succesfuly) migrate something (debian in this case)
from VirtualBox to Xen? I think it could be possible, but... I don't
know. I think I'll have to migrate the kernel, some libs and stuffs,
but I'm not really sure about it.

Any link, paper, ideas or something are welcome :-)

Thanks in advanced.

Boris.
