Re: [Xen-users] How to use a newer Kernel with 2.0.7

I downloaded my testing using hg but I went and built some more copies to see
if I could figure out what was going on. It seems to work for me in the
2.0.7 tarball as well...
The directory is called linux-2.6.11 but it has the patch applied. There's
also the vmlinuz-2.6.11.12-xen0 that I saw when building on -testing. As I
mentioned earlier you can check the patch level of the source by doing:
head linux-2.6.11-xen0/Makefile
And checking the value of EXTRAVERSION
If it has a number in it (before the Xen stuff) then it got patched.
Are you *really really* sure that you're not getting a patched kernel? Have
you tried booting it to see what number it displays? What do you see if you
issue the "head" command above? What about "ls -l dist/install/boot"?
HTH,
Mark
