Fedora Virtualization List
This section contains the discussion happening on the fedora-virt list.
Fedora Virtualization Status
Rawvirt Rawhide Virtualization for Fedora 12
Justin Forbes announced[1] "As was done for Fedora 11 users, the tradition continues, only the locations have changed.
We've set up a repository for people running Fedora 12 who would like to test the rawhide/F13 virt packages. To use it, do e.g."
$> cat > /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-virt-preview.repo << EOF [rawvirt] name=Virtualization Rawhide for Fedora 12 baseurl=http://jforbes.fedorapeople.org/virt-preview/f12/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 EOF $> yum update
The Virtualization Preview Repository[2] is for people who would like to test the very latest virtualization related packages. This repository is intended primarily as an aid to testing / early experimentation. It is not intended for 'production' deployment.
