Re: [Xen-users] very basic doubts
There are a few methods for doing this, depending on how much free disk
space you have. IMHO, the easiest way is to install on a totally
different partition (run the installation disk, install a minimum
install to that partition, being sure *not* to write any boot loader.
Then, from Domain 0 (host) you select that partition as the one that
you want to start, by using a configuration file similar to this one:
[root@persephone ~]# cat /etc/xen/xen.conf
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU"
memory = 64
name = "Mail"
disk = ['phy:hda5,hda5,rw']
root = "/dev/hda5 ro"
(assuming that the partition you installed on was hda5).
To start this domain, you can type 'xm create /etc/xen/xen.conf -c'
(assuming your config file is xen.conf). If all goes well, you should
boot up and get a working console for your other domain.

Hello,
I am mentioning the order I tried to install xen on my system. I would
like to know is it correct?
On FC2 (my host linux):
1. Installed python, ZopeInterface, twisted, iptable, logging and
other dependency stuff
2. Did 'make all' in base xen directory after changing kernel version
to 2.4 in makefile.
3. made changes in grub.conf
4. bootup in xen, start xen service using 'xend start'
If the above steps are correct then how to install the guest linux
and how to boot in it.
I would be very thankful if someone cared to answer such basic
questions.
