Hi I have to build an own kernel on a dom-U (with openssi). At the moment i''ve build an openssi kernel which i can''t run in the dom-U because of missing xen functionality. How can i add the xen additions to this new kernel? )I have already downloaded the xen sources.) Thanks for any help.

Of course this assumes you are working from a Xen source setup.

There will be a dir for xen0 (domain 0) and a dir dor xenU (guests) cd xen-2.0/linux-2.6.10-xenU/ then do make ARCH=xen menuconfig to configure your domU kernel and then make ARCH=xen to build it.

The OpenSSI dudes have actually worked on Xen support themselves. Have you seen this HOWTO? http://openssi.org/cgi-bin/view?page=docs2/1.9/debian/xen-howto.txt It''s Debian-oriented but looks like it should be helpful on other distros too.
