If you have extra disk space, the most successful I've been at getting
domUs running is to install a native system on a separate partition,
boot that system, download the xen source and create a domU kernel for
that distro. Then copy the kernel over to your dom0 partition. Be
careful not to overwrite a kernel by the same name.
Trying to use prebuilt kernels has not always worked for me. And so
far, I've been unable to make any kernel boot debian/sarge as a guest
under FC5 and have a network connection. But that's been my only
failure to date. Booting debian as a guest works from Centos4.4 and
SuSE 10.1 and SuSE 10.2.
And I've never been able to get a dom0 working from debian/sarge. It
never can find my root partition even though it's the same one a non
virtualized kernel is quite happy with. I've got some new hardware
coming tomorrow to see if that makes a difference.
Jim.
