For the record, I tried running a Xen Dom U in virtualbox a couple months ago and it didn't work, even when HVM was not used. The VM simply black screened after the "bios" post. I was surprised by this since I wasn't trying to use HVM but oh well.<br>

Thanks for the feedback to my question--you gave me some more ideas to<br>
consider, which is exactly what i needed.<br>
<br>
I'll investigate exporting a VirtualBox image and importing it into Xen.<br>
As the 2 require different software to be installed on the guest OS (i<br>
think Xen actually wants a different kernel), that could be interesting.<br>
But, perhaps it is possible.<br>
<br>
If that doesn't work i think i'll take the other suggestions of<br>
installing a Xen dom0 on my machine and making sure VirtualBox doesn't<br>
run at the same time. Once i'm done with Xen, i should be able to<br>
uninstall the extra kernel and related software and go back to<br>
VirtualBox.<br>
