Thanks, that worked. But I don't understand the difference between 2.6.30-rc3-tip (I used the main branch, not the bleeding edge) and 2.6.29-xen-r4. As I want vTPM support and the "tpmbk" module source code is only in the 2.6.29-xen-r4 sources, I use 2.6.29-xen-r4 as dom0 kernel. What is the difference and how can I build a kernel that can be used for domU's?

Hi,

I downloaded Xen-3.5-unstable from http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg two days ago and built it without problems (make tools, make dist, make install). Well, the /lib/modules/2.6.30-rc3-tip/kernel directory now only contains the subdirectories "arch" and "drivers" - so where are all the other modules???
Of course Xen does not start correctly. It hangs at "Waiting for root file system..." - having no "fs" modules it could be hard to read a file system ;) And by the way: Yes, I created a initrd image for the new kernel (I'm on Debian).

I've also tried to build the Linux kernel under /usr/src/xen-unstable/linux-2.6-pvops.git completely. It then gives me MODPOST errors "ERROR: [xxx.ko] undefined!" for most of the AGP (or AGPGART?) modules. Having removed them, it builds but Xen cannot boot with that kernel.

Any suggestions?
