00:07.46rhowepfft
00:07.58rhowewhich is now
00:08.30murbrhowe: you realise they do snapshots?
00:08.44rhoweHm, missed them
00:08.51rhoweOh well, too late now :)
00:09.14murbrhowe: what hardware do you have to run it on?
00:09.59rhowemurb: Duron 1.1, Abit KT7-RAID and a 3com 3c59x. The NIC is supported, will see about the rest
00:10.06rhowemurb: Just wanna see if it works or not :)
00:10.14rhoweThe HD is as good as blank
00:10.18murbhow much ram?
00:10.22rhowe768Mb
00:10.33murbwhat does -RAID mean?
00:10.38murband do you use any such features?
00:10.46rhoweMeans it has a Highpoint 370 controller, which goes unused
00:11.02rhoweI just use the IDE controller in the VIA motherboard chipset
00:11.29rhoweThis is my desktop box, which boots via PXE straight from the NIC usually, so no harm can come to it unless xen trashes the BIOS, which is somewhat unlikely :)
00:12.33rhoweSo long as xen plays nice with the Via chipset, things shouldn't be too bad
00:15.04rhoweSound OK?
00:17.32murbrhowe: i think it really likes intel PIIX controllers
00:17.39murbatleast for decent speed.
00:17.42murbor SCSI.
00:17.46murbvarious chipsets
00:18.14murbrhowe: in the future they are planning on having driver domains which will run a cut down linux so native linux dirvers will work better.
00:18.23rhowemurb: Unfortunately, my PIIX is my dual celeron and would take effort to put xen on
00:19.50murbI would boot Xen on this machine, but sadly it(the compaq bios) asks for keyboard input on boot :(
00:21.00rhoweIs that a bad thing?
00:25.29murbrhowe: yes, the machine is in mechelen
00:25.38murboh and i'm not sure the ethernet card is supported either.
00:26.24rhowemurb: I read that it was..
00:26.41murbrhowe: on my machine.
00:27.02rhoweOh right
00:27.07murband the virtual network doesn't do v6
00:27.10murbiirc.

00:27.26murbyeah.
