Thread-topic: [Xen-users] debian squeeze released.
Hello,

Im reading all the horror stories but has anyone upgraded from Lenny to
Squeeze that is running XEN 4 from source? Im guessing the problems
would be grub.  If that is the case you could copy the menu.lst file
before upgrading and install grub legacy when the OS is upgraded, then
copy the menu.lst file back so that you have the same grub version as
before

Ian

Hi,

2011/2/6 Mauro <mrsanna1@xxxxxxxxx>:
> Do you know if squeeze has xen support?
I have written up most of the issues I encountered with a
lenny->squeeze Xen upgrade yesterday.

rootserver-with-raidlvmxen-from-debian-lenny-to-debian-squeeze/

Disclaimer: It might not be in the most politically correct fashion.
My patience ran thin after some while, as almost all the issues I ran
into had been documented months ago. Additionally, having no console
access to the server things were a bit discouraging.

My advice, nonetheless, is to reinstall if you have sufficient bandwidth
to move your VMs off the Xen host.
