RE: Can you boot NetBSD/xen using a bootdisk

["Gregg C Levine" <gregg.drwho8%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Makes sense. I did look at the XEN manager options for Linux, but
since at the time I wasn't running my distribution the way it wanted,
we were forced to a parting of the ways.

However since I'm not planning on running more then one domain, and in
this case I selected NetBSD to be that hosted OS, it made sense to me
to ask.
