[CentOS] 'initrd' image of CentOS (domU) on Ubuntu (dom0)
Hello, What is the best way to get the xen enabled CentOS 5.2 vmlinuz and initrd images for use as a guest domain (domU) on Ubuntu host domain (dom0). Is there a site where these are available? I am hoping that I could use the vmlinuz from the latest kernel rpm, if I go that route, how could I generate the initrd image given that my host is Ubuntu? These are for use with post install of domU, which is setup using xen-create-image. Thanks

Are n't they used for installation and probably as a xen host? Thanks
