Hi,

I temporarily switched to Ubuntu 5.01, and succesuflly built XCI.

The HOWTO instructs to install the rootfs, then reboot the machine.
But what is the next step after that?? I suppose that after that, we
can boot Xen from the newly created rootfs??


BTW, I found that in the below step in HOWTO:

....
4 - Copy the rootfs inside the root LV:
  $ bzip2 -d rootfs.i686.ext2.bz2
  $ dd if=rootfs.i686.ext2 of=/dev/xenclient/root
    (or alternately a remote push)
  $ dd if=rootfs.i686.ext2 | ssh root@target "dd of=/dev/xenclient/root"
....

The step "$ bzip2 -d rootfs.i686.ext2.bz2" not necessary, because we
already have rootfs.i686.ext2 inside binaries/xenclient/. So we can
remove that line.

Thanks,
J
