Hi,
i try to virtualize an existing Server in XEN 3.0.3 + pae . My
Xen-Server has the Intel VT extension so i´m using HVMloader.
 
I tried to tar the old system (kernel 2.4.26) and put the files in an
LVM-disk but then i can´t boot it because of a missing  bootsector.
When i tried the disk-image to boot the virtual-machine crashed after
vmlinuz is decompressed.

How to get this work?

Thanks

Andreas Grabner
