hi,

One of the things that came up in the LinuxTag Conversations was that we
should have a lightweight Cloud Optimised CentOS kernel, to compliment
the CentOS Plus one that we have already.

What does everyone on the list feel about something of that nature ? and
what would the highlights of this kernel be ?

Hi,
Sounds pretty good to me. Vmware support (eth, vga) out-of-the-box is
mandatory for me to use such kernel.

support for SR-IOV drivers for GPUs, ethernet, infiniband with KVM, Xen

Wont those sort of things typically be targeting a host kernel rather
than a cloud instance kernel ( and are those bits not already there -
except Xen on dom0 )
