Re: [Xen-users] How to build xen on x86_64?
I tried Xen 3.0.1 from portage like you advised, but I'm still getting
same error message. I followed your message exactly. Only difference was
including "=sys-kernel/xen-sources-2.6.12.6-r3" also
to /etc/portage/package.unmask. I don't know what kind of info I could
still add. It looks that problem isn't my build commands.
