Re: [Xen-users] Compile 64 bit hypervisor&kernel on 32bit kernel ?

[Stephan Seitz <s.seitz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Emre,

You might download the packages from
        http://boreas.netz-haut.net/pub/
        ftp://boreas.netz-haut.net/pub/

To answer your question, i've only made packages of the hypervisor, not of the 
kernel.
Anyway, I packed the 2.6.18.8 64bit and 2.6.18.8 32bit kernel, initrd and 
modules-dir
each into a tar.gz.

Also available are updated packages of xen-tools and rinse pulled from cvs (or 
svn?,
cant remember. Thanks to Steve Kemp for working on this.)

Since these packages might be of interest for others, this also goes to 
xen-users.

The hypervisor packages differs from the original 3.2.0 release as listed below:

- pathes are changed to fit the debian/ubuntu way (as done in the upstream 
xen-3.1)
  (/lib vs /lib64, /etc/xen/ vs. /etc/xen/scripts)
- default network-setup is "dummy"
- hvm bios: i'm currently trying to enhance/beautify the bios, this is ongoing 
work
  and not ready by now, however it works as expected.

Feel free to give me a note if something doesn't work.

cheers,

Stephan
