Hello,

What is the simpliest way to run Redhat 7.3 server as CentOS 5 domU?

I see that Xen emulates Intel PIIX ATA controller for HVM domUs but latest kernel of Redhat 7.3 (2.4.20-20.7smp) has no ata_piix kernel module yet. Is it possible to download it somewhere or there is another way? :)

And I'd like to avoid reinstalling them with the new OS. Preferably they'd just die their own death in their little domUs. :)

In case you don't get this to work, I've replaced a few of these good old boys with CentOS 3.x running under VMware server and everything pretty much continued to work as-is, even CIPE tunnels that went away in later releases.
