I tried downloading linux-image-2.6.32-bpo.4-xen-amd64_2.6.32-11~bpo50+1_amd64.deb off of that link. I then ran dpkg -i on it and it just started to give me errors which I can't relay to you because we picked that time to have a power failure.

Painless way. Adjust for your architecture.
http://packages.debian.org/lenny-backports/linux-image-2.6.32-bpo.4-xen-amd64

Files are not found because of errors. There should be two files if it works. The most likely reason
for build errors are incomplete depends. You must be missing some of the build packages - check the build requires again.

Hello

 

I see from my searches that people have asked similar questions to this already. I read through them, and I've tried the steps on my test server. I have just a simple dual core AMD 64bit. I installed Ubuntu 10.04 server on it, using LVM's for some later design work. I want to set up dom0 and 4 domU's, but I can't get any version of xen to install.

 

As I said, I read the previous posts here, and a zillion posts about installing xen on other sites, but none of the step-by-steps seem to work with mine. One of the last ones I tried was the post here by Thiago Martins, and before that I followed http://bderzhavets.blogspot.com/2010/04/set-up-ubuntu-10.html. I always get to around:

 

make menuconfig # Enabled the dom0 support and the Xen backend as usual on Ubuntu 9.10, F12
make -j2
chmod g-s /usr/src -R
make deb-pkg
dpkg -i ../linux-image*2.6.32.10*.deb

 

Here it tells me that the files or directory doesn't exist. I also notice that a lot of errors show up after the make -j2, but it does finish. I know that I don't know enough yet about each of these steps, so I might be missing something that is assumed to be known. Before I did this reinstall of the server, I was using Ubuntu 8.04, and I had no trouble installing, and running xen there. I'm not even too concerned for which version of xen I try. Of course with 8.04 server, I just did an apt-get to install everything.

 

Could someone please take pity on me, and point me to a step-by step that might work; or possibly tell me what could be going wrong with what I've tried.

 

Thank you.
