Re: [Xen-users] Re: How to upgrade to Xen 4.0.1 on Centos 5.5 ?
 
I would stop building on CentOS 5.5 . Any distro like Ubuntu 10.04.1 Server , F13,F12 would work for sure. Currently i am on top F14 ( rawhide) at Xen 4.0.1 ( .21 Michael Young kernel)

  Does someone have a step by step tutorial to upgrade Xen to 4.0.1
    with the last kernel on CentOS 5.5 please ? 
    
    I followed this tutorial :
     http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/Xen4.0?highlight=%28xen%29|%284.0%29
    
     hg clone -r RELEASE-4.0.1 http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-4.0-testing.hg cd xen-4.0-testing.hg make xen make tools make stubdom make install-xen make install-tools make install-stubdom make world => to compile the new kernel
  
    
    What do I do after this ? Excuse me
    for my stupid question but it's the first time I compile a kernel. 
     
    I tried : 
     
    make install 
    mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32   2.6.32
     
    But I have some errors about "No module xxx found for kernel
    2.6.32.21, aborting." 
    I spent this step with : --builtin="ehci-hcd" --builtin="ohci-hcd"
    --builtin="uhci-hcd" --builtin="sata_nv" --builtin="usb-storage"
     
    After I modified my grub.con but my server doesn't boot...
     
    Thanks a lot for your help !

            Run :- 
              # man mkinitrd 
              there should be option like "--ignore-missing"

                 I noticed this error ;) !
                  Thanks.  
                  
                  But when I launch mkinitrd -f
                  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32.21   2.6.32.21 
                  I have this error : 
                   
                  No module ehci-hcd found for kernel 2.6.32.21,

                                Thanks a lot for your proposal !
                                 
                                I tried to upgrade it last week without
                                success. 
                                 
                                I follow this "howto" :  http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/Xen4.0?highlight=%28xen%29|%284.0%29
                                 
                                I downloaded the source package. 
                                 cd xen-4.0 make xen make tools make stubdom make install-xen make install-tools make install-stubdom make world => To download and compile the new kernel 2.6.32.x 
                                When it's over, in my /boot directory I
                                have the xen-4.0.1.gz, the
                                vmlinux-.2.6.32 but not the
                                initrd.img-2.6.32 ?
                                 
                                I never compiled a kernel myself...
                                 
                                Have a nice day ;)

                                  It's not very hard to compile Xen for Centos 5.5, I did it last week using xen 4.0.1 and  2.6.32.21 pv_op dom0 kernel. Let me know if you need any help.
