[olug] XEN

[Michael Peterson]

Is there any specific hardware you have had good luck with running XEN on?
I have tried RHEL and CentOS on new and old HP systems and had no luck 
at all with getting XEN as included with the install to work at all.
Are the two I mention the wrong ones to look at when wanting to use or 
try out XEN?
