hello, I just upgraded the rpmstrap script for CentOS 4.2. As I don't have any x86_64 machines I just upgraded the i386 section. Some of the version numbers are changed and there were some new package requirements. The file is attached. Overwrite the original file under /usr/lib/rpmstrap/scripts and itt will work again.

...-based distributions. The intent of such a tool is to be able to bootstrap a basic working RPM-based system (I use it primarily for creating chroots for cross-distro development and testing, but it could also be used for simple installs or even upgrade and dep-closure tests). It's called "rpmstrap" and it currently works "pretty well" with i[3456]86 versions of Fedora Core 2, Fedora Core 3, and CentOS 4. You can get it here: http://hackers.progeny.com/~sam/rpmstrap/ QND instructions on using it to build a basic CentOS 4 chroot can be found here: http://trac.samhart.net/trac...

...e mention they have used my "xen-tools" scripts to create Debian Xen instances. Recently I released version 1.5, both as a tarball [1], and also as a package in Debian''s unstable distribution.[2] This now allows the creation of CentOS4 images via the use of the ''rpmstrap'' command. I figured this might be interesting to people running Xen hosts. Xen-tools is undergoing some work to allow it to more easily be used to create and manipulate non-Debian distributions and this work will eventually live at http://xen-tools.org/.

Just installed Xen 3 on FC5 that all went smooth following: http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstart I want to however create a FC4 virtual machine - I attepmpted to use the image at: http://jailtime.org but it doesnt seem to work (networking fail, most else works great) -- I am thinking that it is because those are for Xen 2 (??) So, is there another place to get images for Xen 3?

Various linux distros come with xen supported after a fashion with xen patches developed for one kernel hacked into the kernel they want to use (with varying degrees of success :-). We''ve been using xen for a while at work to try and provide development and testing platforms for a slew of different linux distros to check out our software under lots of different conditions. The
