Where could we find patches for 2.6.22/23 to add Xen? How could I gete a recent kernel with Xen? Thanks for any suggestion tht could help!

I mean less than <2.6.22. Hard disks and thus whole system performance just sucks when there are significant I/O load (for example creating large files with dd). There is a huge thread about it : http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-482731-highlight-.html and this is not related with xen but in linux >2.6.18 kernels in general. Something related to cfs scheduling. So for production Gentoo is useless for certain amd64 users on certain hardware at least while there will be available newer >=2.6.22 xen kernel sources. Redhat and Centos how to managed that they do not suffer from this issue. CFS patches? I tried to setup Fedora Core7 for my dom0, but it seems to me VERY unstable on my hardware. (several random network losses and even system crashes within 2 weeks). I installed Centos5 with older kernel 2.18 and older xen 3.0.x. My sata2 drives performs well and system is stable - this seems to be the only solution for production for me now. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
