What exactly did you try, what is happening instead of the expected results, why do you think there are some files missing? Basically, to set up a Debian or Ubuntu system from scratch, you need debootstrap. On a native Debian and UBuntu system, these are available via apt. On non debian-based systems, you''ll need to get the debootstrap deb package, unpack it/convert it via alien, and see if you get it going. If I remember correct, it''s a shell (or maybe perl) script, which should work out of the box. Maybe you''ll need some dependencies, but I don''t know exactly, as I never tried to use debootstrap on Fedora. There''s also a site which offers readily built basic system images for download, but I don''t have the URL at hand.

By this way you can use other systems (real machines) like source. So to install a debian like domU you just need to have one machine running debian (and rsync installed).> i have also installed a other fc4 as an domu with yum but i think > therre got some files lost. > does anybody had the same troubles? >No, when I have to install Xen in RedHat or Fedora I compile it.

Or you can use the Debian/Ubuntu images at http://jailtime.org/ or http://www.xen-get.org/. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
This is about installing Xen 3 on Debian. There is explained how to create a domU. Maybe this link helps you: http://www.toastworld.org/index.php?page=mkultra/Xen _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
