Re: [Xen-devel] Mkinitramfs wants minimum 2.6.19 kernel!

["Cédric Schieli" <cschieli@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,


I've setup a repository dedicated to Xen 3.0.4 for Feisty.
It is located at http://cedric.gabriello.fr/ubuntu
Hypervisor and tools are 3.0.4 plus some pygrub and pvfb fixes backported from xen-unstable
Kernel is Chuck's 3.0.3 plus pvfb kernel parts backported from xen-unstable
I've built i386 packages only but they should build on amd64 without much trouble.

Hi Chuck,

First of all, thank you very much for your response. I just sent you a
personal email as I didn't recognize you sent a response here.

Chuck, I'm more looking into having 3.0.4 or a development version of
3.0.5 (as I do daily builds). I think at least having 3.0.4 is
necessary as it has a lot of fixes for HVM domains.

Is it possible to install 3.0.3 with 2.6.19 from the packagas, than
"upgrade" to 3.0.4 or latest daily build without touching the 2.6.19
kernel?

Please let me know if you'd need some help (testing, bug reporting,
porting to 2.6.20 etc.) with Xen on Ubuntu!

Thanks,

Emre
