Hi all,
I've recently installed Fedora Core 4 Test 1 and got xen working. This
was about a week ago. Before I finished getting Xen installed using yum
and the HOWTO resources below, I had issues getting yum to find
kernel-xen0 and kernel-xenU. I searched and searched and finally found
the rpms in the development tree on Fedora's main download section. But
in any case, once I found them and pointed yum to that repository, I
rebooted and was able to boot into my dom0 kernel. I played with xen
briefly and quickly ran into an issue where I rebooted the domain and
python spiked my cpu on dom0. I ran into a few other issues as well, but
I don't recall the details exactly. So I decided to reinstall my dom0
using Fedora Core 3, since this is what the HOWTO's were based off of.
After installing Core 3 and setting my fedora-development.repo to enabled
(all others to disabled), I ran "yum update" successfully. I rebooted
into my new kernel (2.6.11-1.1208_FC4). I tried searching for kernel-xen0
and kernel-xenU using yum and have been unable to find it this time. I
looked in fedora's main download server and didn't see it there anymore.
1) Does anyone know where I can get these rpms?
2) If not, has anyone had luck compiling the unstable source over the past
few days?
I've also tried to manually install the xen source, but have issues where
there seems to be some source code issues that prevent it from being
compiled? Maybe something to do with gcc-4.0?
