Pkg xen devel - Nov 2008 - Xen AMD64 and dom0 now official in Lenny?

Hello,

I see the new Xen packages now really in Sid and even in Lenny on
packages.debian.org:
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=linux-image+xen+amd64&searchon=names&suite=testing&section=all
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64
Does this mean there is now official Xen amb64 and dom0 support in Lenny?

I am running it now for a while without problems (Etch domU with Lenny
dom0, both 64-bits).

I've tried to run a 32-bits Lenny domU on a 64-bits dom0 but that did
not work for me. Is this supported?

I've also tried to get pygrub working following this receipe:
http://forum.lxlabs.com/index.php?t=msg&goto=38030&
But it did not work, the domU still boots the kernel in the domO.
Is pygrub suppported?

With regards,
Paul van der Vlis.

It should work. I run it regularly. Note that you need a PAE guest
kernel.

It should work. The path to pygrub is actually under /usr/lib on Debian
not /usr/bin as in that link. Just using "pygrub" without a path
should
do the right thing.

In both cases knowing exactly how it doesn't work would be useful.
