Yep, thanks.

Harmandeep is looking at (learning how to do) this already. If you feel
like sharing any knowledge/giving any advice on how to best achieve
that, I'm sure she'll appreciate (but if you can't or don't have time,
no problem :-D).

Right. Harmandeep, you can try this rather easily!.

You have a clone of the xen.git already. I think you just have to:
Â- `make uninstall' (I'm not sure it will work, but it at least shouldÂ
  not harm!)
Â- clean the sources
Â- checkout, e.g., in a branch, one of the tags of a previous release,Â
 Âsay RELEASE-4.6.0 or RELEASE-4.5.0
Â- build again
Â- install
Â- update the bootloader
Â- reboot and report the result.

Regards,
Dario
