[Xen-users] Adding driver modules to xen kernel

[Tomas Lanik <tomas.lanik@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, 

I have just started to use Xen with Fedora Core 6 Linux.
Now I have decided to add SATA II RAID controller (3ware 9650SE) 
to the system to provide RAID 1 redundancy.
Latest kernel and also kernel-xen (dom0 kernel) provided with FC6 is using 
2.6.18.x kernel version , which does not have a driver module for 9650SE 
controller. 2.6.19 kernel contains the driver but has not been released for FC6 
yet.
However 3ware are providing driver disk
http://www.3ware.com/kb/article.aspx?id=14546 (look for FC6 )to load the 
additional modules when installing FC6.
The question is when i am installing the additional drivers will they be loaded 
also for the xen version of the kernel (dom0 kernel)? Or I will have to install 
the driver somehow into the xen kernel (dom0 kernel) later? If have to install 
later then How?

Thanks a lot for any help.

Tomas
