Thanks, Sven. I''m trying to follow your advice and compile from source obtained from Mercurial. By following the instructions in the Xen documentation I can compile fine, but dom0 won''t boot. I suspect I''m having problems due to packages and/or lack of an initrd. I don''t have any experience with kernel compiling or initrd images. Could you explain any more how you did this? For example, what is the "FC5 config from the Xen Kernel?" And does it create a ramdisk for booting?

I''m trying to follow your advice and compile from source obtained from Mercurial. By following the instructions in the Xen documentation I can compile fine, but dom0 won''t boot. I suspect I''m having problems due to packages and/or lack of an initrd. I don''t have any experience with kernel compiling or initrd images. Could you explain any more how you did this? For example, what is the "FC5 config from the Xen Kernel?" And does it create a ramdisk for booting?
