Lguest

Lguest

Lguest is a Linux kernel virtualization x86 hypervisor, introduced in kernel version 2.6.23 (released 09-Oct-2007). It is not a full virtualization solution; instead it operates the Linux kernel with lguest support. Installation is as easy as running modprobe lg and then run Documentation/lguest/lguest to create a new guest.
