Hi,

Just install mercurial. then, hg clone the testing repo or download the source tarball (if you find it). Then, go inside this folder and:
make world
make install

Make world builds xen and dom0 kernel. You can then use this to boot to xen hypervisor and kernel. You can also use this  kernel for your domUs.

Rick,

many thanks for that offer, but I have a Debian based systems, so it
might be some work to get the patches right.

I will, try the straight 2.6.18 kernel and work my way up until I hit
highest version that actually builds.

Is there a source of the patches you speak of somewhere?
 and where can I get xen 3.1.2 sources?
