I had been using FC6 on this and several other hosts with no problems,
other than not getting Xen to a useful state.
When I started this project 9 wasn't out and the instructions in
Virtualization for Dummies are based on 7, so I went with that.
As far as x86_64, I'm not completely certain how to tell, but it's been
running the x86_64 FC6 image with no obvious problems. I'd rather not
drop back to 32-bit, since that will make use of more than 4G of
physical memory tedious.
An InstallFest in a couple of months might be useful, but I was hoping
to get somewhere on this sooner than that. Perhaps I can be of some
minor assistance when it does roll around.
I'm downloading 8, but uTorrent is predicting 12 more hours... I'll get
back with how this pass works out.
