Debian version is quite old and miss alot
I think the best way is to grub novell patches of xen (old style) and apply this to a new kernel (like 2.6.31-5) an compile it.
Then u can use xen hypervisor and xen tools 3.4
 
I might publish it as deb files if u need, but then u will have to use ubuntu 9.10, since I find Lenny also quite old, and the new sid debian version seem to be more stable.

You may want to build and use the 2.6.18-xen kernel from source as
well. Debian's dom0 kernel may have some issues. See

I'm installing a new server, and I want know waht is better:

- Install xen from source from xen.org <http://xen.org> version 3.4.2 ?

- Install xen fron apt-get from debian package 3.2.1 ?

The server has Debian Lenny.

What is correct on production server ?
