I forgot to mention that I found this doc mentioning how to migrate
http://jeff-brady.blogspot.com.br/2011/12/linux-on-hyper-v-migrate-redhat-vm-from.html

*But* I'm more concerned for the aspect of driver-wise.
Technically a xen-to-hyperV image will boot, would it be
auto-suficient?

I mean, would I have to reinstall all drivers ?

thanks
