I would appreciate input from members who have used LKVM on an AMD CPU
(desktop). ?Please give your motherboard + CPU combo.
It's best to go with the most compatible hardware to ensure that
you can always try other hypervisors without problems.
This box which I use this at work is 1yr old now:
AMD Phenom X4 9650 processor
Asus M3N78-EM mother board
2 x 4GB OCZ Gold RAM
Dual port Intel EEPro NIC
2 x 750GB SATA HDDs
100% compatible with CentOS/Xen, and commercial Citrix XenServer.
VMWare ESX does not work -- cannot detect SATA controller.
KVM (untested) should not have any problems since most issues arise
due missing kernel drivers for disk controllers, NIC, etc. So it comes
down to which distro/kernel you will be using to run KVM.
