Thanks.

I'm neither NetBSD developer nor tester, but an end-user and i am really very happy to use NetBSD as my primary operating system on my notebook. As an end-user, i was planning to launch a blog type web site to publish an end-user's NetBSD experience and small tricks.

Xen, NetBSD and a linux distro... I've searched many resources and couldn't find a good tutorial mentioning about to use an existing linux distribution as Xen guest domain. NetBSD's offical one seems to be complex even for average users.

I partitioned the hard disk using Ubuntu's Gparted software on Ubuntu live cd, and then installed Grub while installing Ubuntu. Much easier. And then, i have installed NetBSD too. After installing some of packages and editing some of configuration files, result is perfectly working 'NetBSD as dom0 and Ubuntu as domU'.

Link to tutorial is http://netbsd.eticaret.com.tr/index.php?sayfa=xen-netbsd-linux

    Excellent stuff... would there be any chance I could persuade
    you to put up a copy at wiki.netbsd.se? :)
