Re: [Xen-users] Xen installation : Python C API mismatch

Thank you for your thorough answer !
Indeed I am booting Debian with the Xen kernel perfectly. I don't know
what you mean by XenLinux but I'm guessing it's what I am booting or
something similar enough.
I agree that since it is the same version it shouldn't mess things up
too much. I am compiling at the moment using the same tutorial (it had
a compiling source page included). It's taking for ever even with a
Quad Core Xen machine with 4GB of RAM...
I'll keep you updated if this works or if I get a free trip to the
datacentre :P

Hi,
You should not forget to create an initrd with the new kernel modules,
if you need one.
That would fail your machine to boot ;-)
Cheers,
Alex

Xen doesn't play very well with conflicting installs. I guess if
you're
installing the same version from source that you've just installed in
binaries it's not so likely to screw things up. That said, most
of the
conflicts are typically in userspace stuff, which shouldn't stop
the machine
actually booting. I'd also not expect such conflicts to result in
a crash at
runtime, it just usually means Xend doesn't work properly.

Yes, if you can figure out which bits to remove. I think there's
a "make
uninstall" target in the source distribution that should do this
reasonably
thoroughly for you; it's not included in the binary distribution you
currently have :-(
*however* in your case, you have successfully installed Xen and
XenLinux by
the sound of it and they're already booting - am I reading you right?
If you get the source distribution for the same version of Xen and
then just
compile / install the userspace tools, that should do. You
probably don't
really need to build Xen / XenLinux lot again, or even reboot for that
matter.
You might still need to remove the old userspace libraries to make
Xend work
right. make uninstall should take them away but it might remove
your Xen /
XenLinux too... I'd suggest you manually look at what the
Makefile does to
see which libraries / binaries to remove, then do it yourself.
Does that
sound reasonably doable to you? Don't use make uninstall, just
use it for
inspiration when uninstalling the userspace tools. Then run make
tools-install to build and install a new version of the tools.
You may need to install a few -dev packages to build successfully.
Cheers,
Mark
