[Xen-users] bug in xen 4.1 install on suse 11.4 (xencommons)

[Mark Pryor <tlviewer@xxxxxxxxx>]

List,

here's how I got 4.1 up on suse 11.4

There is a small bug with the xencommons init script preventing xenstored from 
starting.

Add this repo for 4.1 RPM's
-------------
zypper ar 
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Virtualization/openSUSE_11.4 Virt

zypper ref
zypper in xen-4.1.0_01-106.1

Fix the xen inits  (observe the order here)
------------
chkconfig -s xen-watchdog off
chkconfig -s xendomains off
chkconfig -s xend off
chkconfig -s xencommons off


chkconfig -s xencommons on
chkconfig -s xend on
chkconfig -s xendomains on

Preload kernel modules (or xencommons will choke)
-----------
nano /etc/sysconfig/kernel
   MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT="tun dummy evtchn gntdev"
   must include these ->                ^       ^
