Hello, I have used OpenVZ on a REH5 as host and it is working, but when I use Fedora 11 as host for OpenVZ with the same Kernel, I have a fatal kernel error on boot.
After some search on google and on this forum, I' not sure OpenVZ can work with Fedora 11. Can you confirm ?
If it should work, I will provide all my config.
Thanks, in advance.

Hi, I've been able to run OpenVZ on a Fedora 11 host, but instead of using the rhel5 stable kernel you should try the experimental 2.6.27-briullov kernel. (It's a bit closer in version to F11's 2.6.30 kernel.)
I've done this with both i686 and x86_64 versions of Fedora/OpenVZ. One major issue however is that the ext4 filesystem (F11 default) won't work with this kernel so you should first partition with ext3.
Here is a Fedora 11 + OpenVZ HOWTO (maybe someone could add this information to the OpenvZ wiki):

You need to enable the 2.6.27-briullov repo and use the yum-allowdowngrade module.
