hi,

i'm sorry to bother you again, but i've tried to get the xen 3.2.0 running with no luck for days now :(

i've tried with different machines, different OS, debian and ubuntu, but nothing seems to work.

Could you please prepare a how-to to build xen 3.2.0? i mean.... how did you manage to do it? are you using debian? which version?

did you use tarball? mercurial?

you can read all i've tried from the mailing list, and nothing worked.

but here you go the last attempt from debian etch, which seemed to work, but vm won't work anyway..

**********

cd /usr/src/
  11  wget 
http://mirror.lintaswave.net.id/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/xen-3.2.0.tar.gz
  12  tar xzvf xen-3.2.0.tar.gz
  13  cd /usr/src/xen-3.2.0
  15  apt-get install mercurial
  16  cd ..
  17  hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
  18  cd xen-3.2.0
  34  apt-get install screen ssh debootstrap python python-twisted iproute 
bridge-utils libcurl3-dev libssl0.9.7 iproute bridge-utils binutils zlib1g-dev 
python-dev transfig bzip2 libncurses5-dev x-dev build-essential gettext
  35  apt-get install gawk
  36  make prep-kernels
  39  cp /boot/config-2.6.18-6-amd64 build-linux-2.6.18-xen_x86_64/.config
  40  make dist
  42  cd /usr/src/xen-3.2.0/dist
  43  ./install.sh
  44  mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled
cd ..
make XEN_TARGET_X86_PAE=y world
make XEN_TARGET_X86_PAE=y install
  45  update-rc.d xend defaults 20 21
  46  update-rc.d xendomains defaults 21 20
  47  depmod 2.6.18.8-xen
  48  apt-get install yaird
  49  mkinitrd.yaird -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18.8-xen 2.6.18.8-xen
  50  update-grub
  51  ee /boot/grub/menu.lst
  52  reboot


**********

This last attempt actually installs smoothly, but then, when it boots, i face this problem:

It gets here...

********
XEN) Xen trace buffers: disabled
(XEN) Xen is relinquishing VGA console.
*********

And then it just reboots.

Actually, when i do "update-grub" while installing, it doesn't add the xen entry in the menu.lst. I added manually and then i get that error.

Thanks for you time and patience.

bye.
