Re: [Xen-users] FreeBSD 7

[Mark Williamson <mark.williamson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There's not an official paravirtualised FreeBSD 7 kernel.  There was one in 
development that there are snapshots for somewhere.  It was in FreeBSD's 
Perforce repository at some point, too.

There's some information here:
http://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/Xen

That effort never got into the FreeBSD mainline so as far as I know FreeBSD 
running PV under Xen is not "supported"...  The old code may work and has 
been occasionally worked on since but I wouldn't expect that it's up to date.

If you Google for this, bear in mind that there was an old port of 5.3 to Xen 
2 but that this won't be able to run on Xen 3.

You should be able to run it in an HVM guest, though.

Cheers,
Mark
