 Okay, a few questions please:
 
 I'm operating a production (file) server in a soho environment=20
 and feel comfortable with a stable release version
 1- is a version of Xen3 available, that will work with NetBSD 4.0? If =
 yes,
 from where?
 
 If no:=20
 2- can I use the "update" funtion of sysinst?
 3- which branch? netbsd-4-0? netbsd-4? HEAD?=20
