Fedora Core 5: Shape Shifter (eWeek)

eWeek reviews Fedora Core 5. "Fedora 5 ships with an updated version of the open-source Xen hypervisor project, which first appeared in Fedora in Version 4. We noticed right away that the Fedora team has smoothed out some of the under-the-hood wrinkles that had marred Fedora's previous Xen implementation. For instance, Xen requires particular modifications to a system's C library to avoid a specific performance hit; with earlier Fedora versions, this called for some hackery to get Xen working properly."
