Hallo again, sorry for this Debian related problem, but I''m not on the Debian-list and here are some good guys knowing the distribution. I''m running debian/etch (testing) and made an Update today. Id installed xen-unstable a new xen-enabled kernel and xend-Userspace related packages. xen-unstable *is* unstable, it crashes when started more than two domUs. So I want back. I installed the old kernel, the old hypervisor (xen-3.0-i386.gz). But now, xend wont start: WARING! Can''t find version 3.0.2-3 of xen utils, fallback to default version! But I don''t know which package to downgrade to make that running. Please help. cu cp _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I managed to install Xen on Debian etch just yesterday. I used the
following packages:
xen-hypervisor-3.0.2-1-i386
- Xen kernel and a lot of other stuff.
linux-image-2.6.16-2-xen-686
- Kernel for your Dom0 and DomU''s.
linux-modules-2.6.16-2-xen-686
- makes /lib/modules/2.6.16-2-xen-686.
- Then you can make your initrd with "update-initramfs -k
2.6.16-xen-686 -c -v"
Then you make your /boot/grub/menu.lst look like this...
## ## End Default Options ##
title Xen 3.0 / XenLinux 2.6
kernel /boot/xen-3.0.2-1-i386.gz dom0_mem=256M console=vga
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-xen-686 root=*YOUR ROOT DEVICE* ro
console=tty0
module /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-2-xen-686
savedefault
boot
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.16-2-686
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-686 root=/dev/md0 ro
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-2-686
savedefault
boot
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.16-2-686 (single-user mode)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-686 root=/dev/md0 ro single
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-2-686
savedefault
boot
### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
That should get you booting into Xen at least. If I were you, I''d just
start over if you can.
As for this:
"WARING! Can''t find version 3.0.2-3 of xen utils, fallback to
default
version!"
After I got Xen installed, I was getting that error message every time I did
anything. But then whatever I was trying to do would work perfectly anyway.
So I just wanted to get rid of the error message. =P
I managed to find this script...
/usr/lib/xen-common/bin/xen-utils-version
And I commented out this line in it... It''s near the bottom of the
script.
if [ -d "/usr/lib/xen-default" ]; then
# [ "$QUIET" ] || echo "WARING! Can''t find version
$VERSION of xen
utils, fallback to default version!" >&2
echo "default"
exit 0
fi
I know that''s not exactly a "fix", but it works.
Hope that helps,
- GM

No more Updates of Dom0 ''till etch is stable :-) Thanks for your reply anyhow. cu cp _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
