Red Hat Training
A Red Hat training course is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Chapter 3. Installing and configuring the para-virtualized drivers
These sections detail installing and configuring the para-virtualized drivers for Microsoft Windows guests on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Note that this guide is about Xen-based virtualized guests. Para-virtualized drivers for KVM-based guests are covered in the Virtualization Guide
Important
The para-virtualized drivers do not support guest booting from a para-virtualized disk. Booting the guest still requires the an emulated IDE driver. Files contained in the
Windows directory cannot use the para-virtualized drivers.
3.1. Creating the guest
Creating new Microsoft Windows virtualized guests is outside the scope of this document. For information on creating guests refer to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Virtualization Guide for information on installing Microsoft Windows virtualized guests. The Red Hat Enterprise Linux Virtualization Guide can be downloaded from www.redhat.com/docs.
