Hi there guys
I'm following this how-to
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenParavirtOps
So good so far, make menuconfig. I set it up to my needs , then the docs
reads some grub examples, my question is, how do I create the xen-4.0.gz
file? the process stated in the doc is only for the xen kernel. Did I myself
clear? Long time ago there were the make tools, make xen, and so on, one day
I updated from git and those options there were anymore.
Any help on this?
To be able to use Xen on your OS you need to
1) Compile Xen
2) Compile a Dom0 Kernel which can work with Xen
But both of the steps are not needed if your Linux distributer
distributes them as a binary or rpm or deb package.
You did not mentioned your OS where you are doing.
I use Ubuntu
wget http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/4.0.1/xen-4.0.1.tar.gz
Move the downloaded xen-4.0.1 tar ball to /usr/src. Unpack Xen
hypervisor to /usr/src directory
sudo tar -xzvf xen-4.0.1.tar.gz
At this point you should see a directory
xen-4.0.1 in /usr/src
Now go inside the Xen-4.0.1 folder and do following
sudo make xen
sudo make tools
sudo make stubdom
Then
sudo make install-xen
sudo make install-tools PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG=
sudo make install-stubdom
Now at this point you should have in /boot directory following files
xen-4.0.gz
xen-4.gz
xen.gz
and Xen is installed on your laptop.But it is not usable at this
point.Now you need to compile a Dom0 kernel.
some places on internet you will find a step
make world<- Do not use it
if you are using make menuconfig sort of approach
because then you are compiling a Dom0 kernel yourself.

Thanks for your answer.
I need to compile my own kernel because with the default Debian xen
stuff I've got issues with my video driver (xorg) and other stuff,
I used to have gentoo a week ago, but got some issued that leaded me to
switch to anoother distro, I opted for debian, the reasons are out of
scope.
Silly me, did no download the xen source code!!! too much work need
some coffee!! maybe some rest.!
Lotta thanks to shade some light on this and for your time and support-
Best Regards
