Hello all,

I needed to configure an Ubuntu7, Ubuntu8 and Gentoo 2007 server
environment, so thought Id simply create a Hardy Dom0, which I have.

1.  Using steps described in How2forge, I have an Ubuntu804 (Hardy)
DomU installed on a Dom0 Hardy (Hardy on a Hardy)

2.  I googled for other instructions that would have outlined how to
install a different kernel (Feisty on a Hardy) Xen guest on a
different Dom0 (Hardy) .. I found this site that describes how that
shows 2 examples of installing a feisty and gusty DomU on a Feisty
Dom0:

http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-7.10-server-install-xen-from-ubuntu-repositories-p2

3.  I followed the example on how to create a gutsy DomU on a feisty:
http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-7.10-server-install-xen-from-ubuntu-repositories-p2

This is what I attempted to do - installing a 7.10 Xen DomU on a Hardy Dom0:

 xen-create-image --hostname=fedora710_clean --size=4Gb --swap=256Mb
--ide --dhcp --dir=/home/xen --memory=256Mb --arch=amd64 --debootstrap
--dist=feisty --install --mirror=http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
Unknown option: debootstrap
Value "--mirror=http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/"; invalid for option
install (number expected)

General Information
--------------------
Hostname       :  fedora710_clean
Distribution   :  feisty
Partitions     :  swap            256Mb (swap)
                  /               4Gb   (ext3)
Image type     :  sparse
Memory size    :  256Mb
Kernel path    :  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-xen
Initrd path    :  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-16-xen



QUESTION - it is still using the default kernel defined in the
/etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf which is the kernel and initrd files of
the host machine -

Kernel path    :  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-xen
Initrd path    :  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-16-xen

Feisty's kernel is: not 2.6.24, right?

Am I missing something here?  Am a noob to xen, so please excuse if
this is such an obvious and simple question.
