Re: [Xen-devel] Installing on own filesystem



The easiest route is to install slack, install bitkeeper, install a JDK, 
install apache-ant, install grub, and you may need to download the crimson
XML parser from the apache site.

Set up your java home and classpath (remember the crimson.jar needs to be 
in your classpath explicitly) variables.  I used /usr/local/java and 
/usr/local/ant/.

Check out the latest xeno sources using bk.  On the cd there is a script
called xen-clone.  It works well, it'll probably save you some time to use it.

Once it's done building, you'll have in your xeno-unstable (or whatever you
called it) the 'install' directory.  This has the binaries, boot images, etc.
Copy xeno-unstable/install/boot/* to /boot/ and set up and install grub.
Copy xeno-unstable/install/etc/* to /etc/, copy xeno-unstable/install/bin/* to
a bin directory (I use /usr/local/bin/, but thats me).

That's about all you need to do and you're ready to go.  I'm running 
xeno-unstable on a Slack 9 dom 0 with 8 slack virtual linux systems without
much trouble.  I've given each one their own partition for setup simplicity,
and tossed together a little shell script that brings each one up on boot.
