Re: [Xen-users] [Just a new try] Questsions about Stubdomains

[Lars Kurth <lars.kurth@xxxxxxx>]

Ian,
is the http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/StubDom page up-to-date? It would be 
good to clear this up (and move the old stuff - if it doesn not work any 
more) into a Xen 3.x and Xen 4.x section. I can do this, I just don't 
know from this thread whether the page is still valid.
