1) Dell PowerEdge 2500 server: Thanks to a wonderful donation from a volunteer, I've got a chance to learn virtualization on a system that resembles closely enough to what we have in the Supermicro classroom server! I had downloaded the latest Debian 'Etch' release candidate. The first problem to turn up was that Xorg wasn't able to load the kbd or mouse drivers! A VERY ODD problem. Seems, someone needs to check the cross-reference dependencies list! When Debian was installed, it did NOT install the following two packages: xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-mouse! Ooops... 2) kqemu on Debian I found several documents that give me the whole picture on how to compile, setup and use virtual systems. By the lab Teusday I should have it in hand to at least start the process of installing the core components.
