libvirt enables you to run that stuff side by side. I don't know the answer about the rpms, I just have done it on fedora core 8 before. I presume you could find out quicker than my by looking for it first if it is installed: rpm -q qemu if not, try to install it with yum yum install qemu Michael Kai Schaetzl wrote: > Michael Will wrote on Mon, 21 Apr 2008 11:28:56 -0700: > > >> fyi: paravirtualized means the OS is new enough to have extensions to be >> virtualization-aware and support it in order to >> not have to emulate all of the hardware completely.
