Thanks a lot. I tried the Tarball and rpm Package
install, and generate initrd with "mkinitrd", but
after reboot, the system can not be booted again.
Is that because that mein SuseLinuxEntpriseServer10
SP1(kernel 2.6.16.46-0.12) can not directly use the
XenKernel 2.6.18 ?
my Suse is a Virtual Machine which created with VMware
infrastrucuture from the Computer Center Server. Will
that cause any problem?
So i want to build a XenKernel from my suse kernel
2.6.16.46-0.12. But when i build from Xen3.1 source
file with "make world" "make install", it generated
still the XenKernel 2.6.18.
Where can i costomize the settings so that it will
generate XenKernel with my original suse kernel
version?
thanks
Wei
