(Get the code!)
I tried again to migrate with Hardy PPA KVM:84 and got a different oops. However, if I first stop the guest VM, and then migrate, it does work fine, and it's actually pretty quick, such that an ssh would see just a few seconds delay. So, offline migration does work, and isn't bad. I would love have live migration working properly, but the offline migration delay was brief enough that I'll probably cancel plans to experiment with Xen and just stick with KVM (the newer version in PPA).
One thing I didn't like with the migration is that the migrated guest takes the full amount of RAM the guest was allocated, rather than just the RAM the guest was using prior to the migration. Good thing I already bought more RAM, although maybe there's something I can do with the new memory ballooning feature...
