Xen and para-virtualisation

[LIMOGE]

Saclay ce 24 avril 2007

Dear All

I need (halas) to run a Windows on my fedora powered workstation. 
Can anybody tell me if the Xen para-virtualisation tool can really host 
Windows, and what are the adaptations to be done to get a working one on 
a machine which doesn't has the Intel VT technology ?
    Many thanks for your kind informations.
                                                    Y. Limoge

No.

Request microsoft to opensource windows code so that we can modify it to 
work as a paravirtualised guest.

In the mean time, you can use qemu to run M$.
