was looking for some help /tutorials on xen ..im a beginner on virtualisation ..so any help would be greatly appreciated ...p.s. whats the basic difference between para and full virtualisation
A quick Google search with the terms Xen Tutorial returned the How-Tos section of the Xen Wiki and an article at Linux Journal. I'm sure with more than 2 minutes of searching you'll find more.
The difference between para-virtualization and full virtualization is that the latter simulates every piece of hardware the guest sees (CPU/Disk/Memory/NIC/...). With para-virtualization, however, the guest knows that it's not the only OS on the iron, and can request resources from the host kernel, instead of having to go through additional software layers.
cheers mate!
