Re: [Xen-users] Install Centos-5 as DomU on Debian Dom0

[Snehasis Sinha <Snehasis.Sinha@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I cannot see any rpmstrap for lenny; however, rpm for lenny is available. Both rpm and rpmstrap are 
available for etch.
You can use jailtime.org ready images to start with. Once you see everything else is fine and 
working well, you can go ahead to have your own images using 'yum --installroot...' from a centos 
instance.
Kickstart should also work; I have not tested, though.

Thanks.
