KVM is the Linux kernel's native virtualization.

Install it

SUSE 11

This has been tested on SUSE Linux 11.2, 11.3 and 11.4.

This is a great idea, Lisa. I'll be fwonloilg with great interest. I am working in an area that relates to online safety and this is a topic of increasing debate and significance.

AFAIC that's the best anwesr so far!

backup

# virsh list --all
# cp -r /var/lib/xen/images/virtual_machine /target
