Hi all Are there any specific requirement on a domU kernel except for the frontend drivers (e.g. networking settings, cpu features, ACPI)? I''m trying to create a new xen guest kernel out of my existing non-xen kernel (with make oldconfig).

This is documented somewhere (manual? wiki? and discussed here, I remember seeing such discussions.

Hi Henning Yes, I''ve installed a xen kernel source. I was thinking more about different settings in the configuration (e.g. modules vs. compiled-in etc.).
