[Erp5-users] Generic Installation Howto/Requirements

[Jean-Paul Smets]

FYI, we had some issues with linux vserver which we used for a couple of
years and abandonned. Those issues seemed to be memory related and lead
to very weird behaviour of squid and zope. It looked like working but
some scripts or methods returned abnormal results. Only restarting the
vserver solved the issue. Those issues never happened in normal
environments.

Since then, we are not so confident with linux-vserver.

JPS.
