Speaking as an amateur idiot, I'd say there are missing steps for a Xen install that should be come before http://openmirage.org/wiki/install. I look forward to following the instructions.
Agreed. It's become easier in recent years with the Ubuntu packaging improving, but it's by no means well documented.
I just rebooted my VMWare Fusion Ubuntu setup with Xen and now the virtual graphics driver bombs out and hangs for some reason. Ho hum...over to Virtualbox for me too I guess.
Magnus: if you kick off the blog post about your setup, we can cut-and-paste that into a more centralised version to benefit other folk as well. Nik's excellent work on the Vagrant setup should also be of use -- has anyone tried it? (it's at https://github.com/mirage/mirage-vagrant-vms)
