RE: [Xen-users] Xen 3.0.2-2 and linux 2.6.16.27+ kernels?

I currently use 2.6.16.27 and Xen-testing with no difficulties.  I do not remember that the patches applied, but some may have had an offset that the system automatically added. 

 

I have not tested any of the more advanced features of Xen, such as migration, save/restore, the balloon driver, and HVM, so I cannot comment if these features work correctly

 

I used the 2.6.16.27 source and added Xen to it, rather than patching upwards from 2.6.16.13. That is, I downloaded the source from kernel.org, un-gzipped it, renamed the folder to 'linux-2.6.16.13', and recompressed to 'linux-2.6.16.13.tar.bz2'.  I never investigated in modifying the Xen sources to instead search for the 2.6.16.27 sources.  The good news is that the generated kernels do have 2.6.16.27 at the end instead of 2.6.16.13.  Since this was a new installation, I figured that since I had to grab the kernel source that I might as well grab the newest (at the time) rather than patching.

Good luck.
