I use Hyper-V at work to run 64-bit VMs close to the metal on Server 2008. It works out so well, I decided to try it at home with Linux, so installed the hypervisor modules and booted up the 11.0 Xen kernel. Or tried to. A message told me I needed to try again with the parameter 'noapic,' so I did. That got me booted to a console, with only part of a file system, an empty /bin directory, and no X server. And no YaST, even character mode. I didn't try for Sax, but I did see a message saying the Nvidia driver wasn't loaded. Is this to be expected? I'll admit I haven't researched it much yet, but on Windows at work it was drop-dead easy. No instructions needed there, provided one has ever used VirtualPC, VMware, or VirtualBox. My processor (64-bit dual AMD) and BIOS both support hardware virtualization, and it's enabled in the BIOS. I didn't imagine it would be this unsatisfying, even the first time. Should I forget about it in this version of openSuSE, or keep trying until I figure out what the problem is?
