Hi Everyone, Currently, I''m running a pvops kernel with Xen 3.4.3 on Ubuntu 10.04. I''m having some serious PCI passthrough issues, so I wish to try the "old style" kernel. But there''s a catch: My RAID card is only supported in the Linux 2.6.32.x tree. Is there a way to obtain this kernel, but use it in "old style" Xen kernel mode? Thanks _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

probably worth mentioning ... Xen4''s also ''unofficially'' available & nicely stable (when the rrepos aren''t broken ...) @ Opensuse. fwiw, @ my box w/ RAID & Ethernet PCI passthru, rpm -qa | egrep "^kernel-|^xen" xen-libs-4.0.0_21087_01-38.1.x86_64 xen-tools-4.0.0_21087_01-38.1.x86_64 kernel-source-2.6.34-44.1.noarch kernel-xen-2.6.34-44.1.x86_64 kernel-syms-2.6.34-44.1.x86_64 xen-4.0.0_21087_01-38.1.x86_64 _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
