Re: [Xen-users] PV- Drivers for Windows (XP, 2003 Server)
|
Hi all,
The problem is that
each vendor ends up with its own version of windows PV drivers.
Wouldn't the world be
better with one set of Windows
paravirtual drivers?
Because XenSource /
Novell have an agreement with Microsoft they use the drivers in the
commercial products, AFAIK Microsoft virtual server ( Hyper V /
Vridian) (they have a beta release) is also a paravirtual platform,
maybe in the next version of windows we will have a build-in PV drivers
.

getting those confused.

if I am wrong.
Yes, but these are
likely for VirtualIron's virtualization product and not XEN PV drivers
for HVM domUs.

You can search for
the Open Source HVM drivers, but I don't think anything stable has come
out, yet.ÂÂThe only other PV drivers that I know about for Windows are
commercially available (read: NOT free)Â- these are Novell's PV drivers
for Windows and NetWare, and XenSource's PV drivers.ÂÂAgain,ÂÂboth of
those are commercial products - in Novell's case you must purchase
SLES10 to get the PV driver pack.ÂÂNot sure about the XenSource ones...
i googled a lot of
time, looking for PV-drivers for Windows- domUs.
I found a few things
about that, but nothing about download an installation.
Do anybody know,
where I can get it and how to install?
DomUs: Windows XP
and 2003 Server
