Well, I think launching a VM and using NFS is the best solution then. I
just wished I could cross-compile it or something, I was gonna use a
machine that didn't have a VT support for the development, so launching a
VM and compiling could have been a very slow operation. I guess now I'll
use my laptop ( with intel-VT ) for the dev.

and about installing DFBSD, well I don't think that this is ideal .. I need
a xen with Dom0 ( linux for instance ) running in order to test directly on
it.


Thanks for your response.

That's not to mention the possibility of installing DragonFly and using=

it, which might be the best solution in this case.<br>
