Hello, I am trying to install xen in a debian box. I have installed your packages for etch version. In that package, in the documentation, in the README.Debian.gz file, you say: "...The only thing we can give you is the patch, which is included in the linux-patch-xen package. You are expected to install this package, download a 2.6.12 kernel from kernel.org (this is the version supported by xen right now. The patch will make it a 2.6.12.6+xen kernel) and roll your own kernel..." Unfortunately, I haven't found this package anywhere. I have also look for it in the debian package archives, but I haven't found it. All that I have found is the package kernel-patch-xen, under unstable version of debian, but it is a patch for kernel 2.6.11, not 2.6.12 as you mention in the documentation. Where can I found that patch package? -- Angel L.

Just get the latest linux-2.6 source and build it or just install the precompiled xen kernel image from debian. MfG Goswin
