Is there a repository of prebuilt linux images available for xVM. I am trying to build a paravirtualized debian instance and I am having a tough time finding good documentation for the newbie. I have successfully built hvms, now I want to go paravirt! Thanks for the help and suggestions -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Search forum. I strongly believe it was done exactly for Debian DomU , utilizing same deboostrap technology , but a bit later then for ubuntu 8.04 DomU ( link suggested). Actually , the manual for Ubuntu is quite enough to repoduce same schema for Debian. Once again, it''s Debian approach:- # apt-get install debootstrap and etc .. . No matter of Xen Hypervisor running at Dom0. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
