You're welcome, yes I guess it's safer to keep them in standalone servers for the moment. For information I did try : FreeBSD 8 i386 paravirtualized on : - Xen 3.4.2 with a 2.6.32 Linux kernel - Xen 4.0 with a 2.6.32.12 Linux kernel FreeBSD 9 beta i386 paravirtualized on : - - Xen 3.4.2 with a 2.6.32 Linux kernel - Xen 4.0 with a 2.6.32.12 Linux kerne Configuration with mono CPU and 512/1024 Mo RAM, Disks on Dom0 LVM partitions. Plateforms : Dell T610, Dell R200, Dell R210. Cordialement, =CF=89=C2=B3 Omega Cube Guillaume S.
