Hello, I''ve recently built a Xen host using RPMs for FC4. It appears nfs is not compiled in to the Xen kernel distributed in the RPMs. How might I go about compiling nfs client support in to the kernel so nfs mounts can be used by my DomU''s? I''d prefer to compile this support as a kernel module. [root@dom0 ~]# lsmod | grep nfs [root@dom0 ~]# modprobe nfs On the DomU''s [root@dom1 ~]# mount nfshost:/var/space /opt/space mount: unknown filesystem type ''nfs'' A link to a howto is sufficient, though I haven''t found anything on my own that appears to answer the question directly. Lots of "how to compile the Xen kernel" stuff doesn''t touch on nfs. Help appreciated. -Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

If your rpm doesn''t have the required modules, remove the rpm''s, download the Xen sources, read the README, compile and install. Come back if you have problems doing so (after reading all available docs). But I can''t remember nfs support isn''t available in stock Xen Kernels, even if it''s a long time since I used prebuilt Xen. I only know nfsroot support isn''t in there.
