[Fedora-xen] How To Test Dom0 Xen Support In Fedora 10

Nothing upstream yet, nothing packaged yet.  The dom0 patch queue seems
to reach the state where the system boots now though.  If you are
willing and able to build your own kernels you can watch the xen-devel
list, build and test dom0 pv_ops kernels, to help upstream get the job done.

If all goes well the first dom0 support bits should be ready for the
next merge window, i.e. make it into 2.6.29.  If that happens rawhide
should have kernel packages with (probably limited) dom0 support ready
for testing early next year.  fedora10 packages will have to wait until
2.6.29-final is released, which is probably 3-4 months from now.

HTH,
  Gerd
