I have managed to figure out the order that the patches are applied

stable running 6 windows hvm's and emerge -e world in dom0 for 24
hours.

Thanks again. I had a depper look into the suse sources and they offer
a tool called guards which generates a list of required patches for
the running arch in the right order.

The following was taken from README.SUSE

-------------%>-------------------------------------

   # Apply the patches

     $ for p in $(./guards $(./arch-symbols) < series.conf); do
         patch -d linux-2.6.25 -p1 < $p || break
       done

-------------%>-------------------------------------

So i piped that into a file, removed all further suse patches and cut
also fixes and so on. result was a list with the required xen patches.

 Could you please post your new truncated series.conf with the required xen 
patches
which can be just applied to vanilla or gentoo kernel sources and ,of course, results in functional kernel?

  Thanks
  Alex


As i took the latest 2.6.25 release from kernel.org with included
patches, i had not have to apply the patches.kernel.org directory too.

Regards
