Hi Todd,


Could you please explain in more detail how to do the job?


On an Ubuntu Hardy box or on a Virtual box running Ubuntu Hardy as
Host? 

Where shall I keep the file copied
(/usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/hardy) on Debian_Xen Virtual box?  If I
don't have a Debian_Xen Virtual box is there a solution?

Can I make use of Hardy installer CD or Hardy ISO image to install
Hardy as Guest on Debian_Xen Virtual box?  If YES, please advise how to
do it.


Others noted with thanks


TIA
