[Cialug] Nested virtualization

[Daniel A. Ramaley]

Thanks for the feedback to my question--you gave me some more ideas to 
consider, which is exactly what i needed.

I'll investigate exporting a VirtualBox image and importing it into Xen. 
As the 2 require different software to be installed on the guest OS (i 
think Xen actually wants a different kernel), that could be interesting. 
But, perhaps it is possible.

If that doesn't work i think i'll take the other suggestions of 
installing a Xen dom0 on my machine and making sure VirtualBox doesn't 
run at the same time. Once i'm done with Xen, i should be able to 
uninstall the extra kernel and related software and go back to 
VirtualBox.
