Hi, I''m trying to install Xen for the first time and I''d like to know if I can specify the Linux source code to be compiled steady of downloading one? As the Xen installation process? In the Xen source code directory I issued: make dist So, it tried to download a Linux kernel. I don''t want it, I want to specify the Linux source code to be compiled. Something like: LINUX_SOURCE_CODE=/usr/src/my_linux_source_code make dist Is there any way to do that? Thanks Ronaldo. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
You can just leave out the kernel build target, making only the hypervisor and the tools: make xen make install-xen make tools make install-tools Ronaldo Zacarias Afonso wrote:> Hi, > > I''m trying to install Xen for the first time and I''d like to know if I > can specify the Linux source code to be compiled steady of downloading > one?

1) That way you''re not sending the mail to the mailing list, and... 2) No, you''re not creating any kernel /at all/. It''s only the hypervisor (/xen/ build target) and the tools like /xm/ (/tools/ build target). I thought your wish is to build the dom0 kernel yourself?!
