Poweredge 860

[Mark Dundore]

I'm pulling down the ISO now (at a blazing 24kb. ;) Is that KVM custom compile something you developed in-house? Also, what does the patching picture look like? (hate to recompile every time you turn around)...

Thanks,
Mark

Agreed.. CentOS 5.2/5.3 here as well.. on a mix of PE 1900s, 1950s, 2950s, and R805s. It's treated us very well. For our virtual infrastructure we use CentOS with a custom kernel (>2.6.27) and KVM/libvirt..

We stick with CentOS 5.2/5.3 also. Along with XenServer for our VM infrastructure that we have been fiddling with.

CentOS 5.2/5.3 has ALWAYS been good to me on Dell Servers.

Fedora works well too but it's been a long time since I've been down the Fedora road.

I am just starting out trying to put Linux on a poweredge.  I have been tinkering with Ubuntu without much success. 4x and 8x write speeds won't boot.  16x speed boots, but complains about corrupt files.  Is there a different flavor of Linux that is recommended?  I am trying to run an XP VM with audi output (otherwise I would go with ESX).

Thanks in advance.
