There are not too many howtos regarding xen 4.0 on Debian lenny, so I tried them all and all failed.

Starting with the "official" howto:

1. I ran
"apt-get install bcc bin86 gawk bridge-utils iproute libcurl3 libcurl4-openssl-dev bzip2 module-init-tools transfig tgif texinfo texlive-latex-base texlive-latex-recommended texlive-fonts-extra texlive-fonts-recommended pciutils-dev mercurial build-essential make gcc libc6-dev zlib1g-dev python python-dev python-twisted libncurses5-dev patch libvncserver-dev libsdl-dev libjpeg62-dev iasl libbz2-dev e2fslibs-dev git-core uuid-dev ocaml libx11-dev"

2. I downloaded the source code for xen 4.0.0, untared it, did "make world", "make install"

3. "mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31.13 2.6.31.13", "update-grub", "update-rc.d xend defaults 20 2", "update-rc.d xendomains defaults 21 20"

The System starts with the xen kernel, but then:

Xend does not start "ERROR (SrvDaemon:349) Exception starting xend ((111, 'Connection refused')

I added "-x" to the init.d script file and ran /etc/init.d/xend again:

debian:~# /etc/init.d/xend start
+ shopt -s extglob
+ test -f /etc/default/xend
+ . /etc/default/xend
+ test xstart = xstart
+ test -d /proc/xen
+ test -d /proc/xen/capabilities
+ grep '        xenfs$' /proc/filesystems
+ grep '^xenfs ' /proc/mounts
+ grep -q control_d /proc/xen/capabilities
+ case "$1" in
+ mkdir -p /var/lock/subsys
+ touch /var/lock/subsys/xend
+ test -z ''
+ test -z ''
+ [[ '' == @(yes|on|1) ]]
+ [[ '' == @(yes|on|1) ]]
+ xend start
+ await_daemons_up
+ i=1
+ rets=10
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 1 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=2
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 2 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=3
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 3 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=4
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 4 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=5
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 5 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=6
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 6 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=7
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 7 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=8
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 8 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=9
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 9 -lt 10 ']'
+ sleep 1
+ echo -n .
.+ i=10
+ xend status
+ '[' 3 -ne 0 -a 10 -lt 10 ']'
+ exit 3
Any ideas? Any working howto?
