So, we have xen-3.0 in Debian. We have libc6-xen. We even have prebuilt xen kernels in packages like linux-image-2.6.16-1-xen-amd64-k8, (and, in incoming, linux-image-2.6.16-1-xen-686).
Only thing we appear to be missing is a simple debian-specific guide for putting all this together into a working Debian xen machine. I think it goes something like this:
- apt-get this
- debootstrap that
- chroot and apt-get the other
- edit this config file thusly
Anyone able to fill in the specifics?
I'm also interested to see if there will be any use for d-i in all of this, maybe to make the steps involved in setting up Debian in DomU automatable, or to let admins of new xen instances install things to their liking.
Oh and BTW, why isn't packages.debian.org being updated to see new packages lately?
