[xenpreview-dev] Install KMP Kernel

[Charles Coffing]

[resending because I forgot to CC the list, sorry...]


We need to get this documented more clearly, but xen-kmp*.rpm are paravirtualized drivers, only intended to be installed on a full-virtualized system.

Example:  If you are running a paravirtualized kernel-xen it already includes the paravirtualized block and net drivers.  However if you are running fully virtualized kernel-smp, you would want to install xen-kmp-smp to get the paravirtualized drivers.
