[ale] What's Better? Convirt 2.0 or virt-manager on CentOS 5.3 and Fedora 14?

[Lightner, Jeff]

Prior to KVM CentOS and RHEL did have XEN so you can do virtualization
without upgrading - just not KVM.   (After KVM was introduced it has
both XEN and KVM available.)

I wouldn't try virtualization on any CentOS release prior to 5.4, since
that is when kvm and libvirt support was added. I'd prefer doing it on
CentOS 6.0 (once that is released). Fedora 14 should be fine.

Here are some good resources I've found.
