[Xen-users] Configuring a xen0 kernel - is the Wiki out-of-date ? [SOLVED]
Hi list. Found the solution. Apparently my xen-dir had been messed up by me doing a ''make menuconfig'' in the xen0 build tree instead of properly doing ''make ARCH=xen menuconfig''. All my low-level SCSI drivers had disappeared from menuconfig even after doing a ''make clean'' and re-running with ''make ARCH=xen menuconfig'' :-/. But after removing the full xen-2.0 dir completely and unpacking xen-2.0.6-src.tgz from scratch it worked as expected and I could add the needed MEGARAID drivers. I now have a machine that boots. Phew! Cheers -- Jan Holst Jensen ______________________________________ Hi list. I am trying to build a new xen0 kernel to get the MEGARAID driver linked in. I have done a "make world" and then gone into the linux-2.6.11-xen0 directory (I know, I am setting up an old Xen 2.0.6, but I need to in order to reproduce some odd behavior I have seen on my production server which runs 2.0.6). According to http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenFaq section 5 you should do make ARCH=xen xconfig (or menuconfig of course) instead of just make menuconfig However, when I add the "ARCH=xen" bit I can''t see or select any SCSI low-level drivers. Doing just plain "make menuconfig" I can see them all (but then no Xen menu). Guess the Wiki is out-of-date or do I need some other kind of incantation ?
