Now that Xen and a dom0-capable kernel have been installed, it’s time to combine the two. There’s essentially two steps to this: Set up grub to boot Xen Set up Fedora to automatically start the Xen management services

git checkout -f xen/next-2.6.39 && git pull && yes “”|make oldconfig && make rpm-pkg && git checkout -f xen/next-2.6.32 && git pull && yes “”|make oldconfig && make rpm-pkg && git checkout -f xen/stable-2.6.32.x && git pull && yes “”|make oldconfig && make rpm-pkg Now I have to mix it all together in a crontab […]

So I wanted to put together a system that would build i686 and x64 versions of the kernel. Shouldn’t be hard, I thought. Maybe a simple yum install gcc.i686, and that’s all. In short, I was wrong. So very wrong.

Again, you have two main methods of getting a dom0 kernel on Fedora. (I’m sure there are other ways, but these are the recommended methods) Using a prebuilt dom0 kernel Compile a dom0 kernel yourself
