Guys,

Seems like I'm stuck

This may or may not address your problem but it worked for Ubuntu systems with 
a similar requirement, build once and distribute.

Apply the attached patch (not mine) to xen 4.0.1.rc3.pre and then build using:

export KERNELS="" ; export PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG="" ; make dist

This generates a dist dir that puts everything in the right place for Ubuntu 
systems. I know the sysconfig/default changes apply to debian as well, the ones 
I'm not sure about are the python lib location move.

This patch works for 4.0.0 and 4.0.1.rc3.pre, but not 4.1.

Guys,
          I've successfully ran dom0/domU (both Debian) in my local laptop 
using 2.6.32.15 dom0 with xen-4.0.1-rc3-pre. Great. Now I want to install it 
into couple of test-machines without compiling from source. So I did following..

          a. make dist-xen
          b. make dist-tools PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG="--install-layout=deb"
          c. make dist-stubdom

This should pre-pare my dist/ directory with binaries. With the help of 
top-level /.install.sh I should be able to install it any other machine (same 
ARCH=x86_64/amd64). I've tar-zipped, copied and inflated. The target machine is 
a CentOS 64-bit machine whereas the build machine (my laptop) is a 
Debian/Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit one. After installation, my xend started, 
bridge-magic happened, `brctl -show` is fine, xm info / xm list is fine, ls 
/dev/xen is fine (evtchn,gntdev) too. But when I'm trying
to run a domU (using a working domU-xmexample-config) it has some problem with 
tap driver config and complains

     "ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack"

ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack

in xmexample config,

kernel = "/vm/tmp/vmlinuz-2.6.32.15-domU-deb"
ramdisk = "/vm/tmp/initrd.img-2.6.32.15-domU-deb"
memory = 256
name = "debdomU"
vif = [ 'mac=6A:60:41:4A:60:41,ip=172.16.30.201,bridge=eth1' ]
disk = [ "tap:aio:/vm/tmp/core.img,xvda1,w" , 
"tap:aio:/vm/tmp/swap.img,xvda2,w" ]
dhcp="dhcp"
netmask="255.255.255.0"
gateway="172.16.30.10"
hostname= "dbose-domU"
root="/dev/xvda1 ro"
extra = "3 console=hvc0"

vmlinuz/initrd/core.img/swap.img are made on Ubuntu and just copied over.

The same config worked earlier on a ubuntu-dom0/ubuntu-domU setup. Is this 
something to do with CentOS-dom0/Ubuntu-domU? Is copying binaries (pyc) built 
in Ubuntu wrong? Then how even xend/xendomains got started? If xend started 
with same python tool chain, what's wrong with domU booting up?

Please help me guys. Should I re-compile?

-Thanks
Deb
