can get 3.1 for Sarge in backports.  I'm using the Debian packages on
    
an
  
x86 system and haven't had any issues, or found any shortcomings.
    

http://packages.debian.org/xen-hypervisor says that the latest version
in Etch is 3.0.3-0-4.

It's easy enough to get the 3.1.1-1 sources from Lenny and compile them
under Etch though (just one dependency you have to ignore).

Hi James.
I decided to install Lenny instead of Etch. I can see there are xen related packages. Would you be able to give me hint how I can compile only the xen-linux image which is not included in Lenny? Otherwise I would have to use the binary package or sources from xensource web site.

The aim is to have xen-image and then use the packages in Lenny (hypervisor, tools, docs, etc)

Thanks

Jiri
