Hi! I tried to build the Xen 3.3.0 source distribution on a Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r4a (AMD64). There were no errors reported during build process or installation. But I am not able to create any HVMs because the hvmloader is missing. I have found an entry in the mailing list archive that said (concerning the same problem with an older source distribution) that there are perhaps some tools missing which are required for building the hvmloader. But I haven''t found any error messages or warnings that may derive from missing build tools. Can someone give me a complete list of all required tools and libraries for building the hvmloader (or perhaps there is a script for checking dependencies)? Please tell me the name (with absolute path) of each binary if possible (Some time ago I had a problem with a failing build because the binary of a tool had a name containing a version number and the correctly named link to that binary was not created automatically). Thanks, Ingo! _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hope that helps, Jon _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
