No sweat. PROLL does not emulate Zilog. It only sets up the OF tree and leaves the OS free to use it. So, PROLL's code is fairly useless for your purpose. OpenBIOS, I do not know. But I do not see any need to emulate zs at all, if you plan for paravirtualization. Just add a driver to Linux for some kind of /dev/hvc (bonus points for making it compatible with PPC64). If you want to run binary Solaris in a full virtual setting, then it's different. Otherwise, use OpenSolaris and add the same hvc there. -- Pete _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
