Guys!

ÂTomorrow in my "live" presentation at Linuxcon Xen Directions! I'll show the Xen Live CD to the public!
ÂTo celebrate! I want to share my last procedure to get and run Xen 4.0.1 on Ubuntu 10.04 64 bits, here we go:



   The procedure:


Â1- Install all the packages:

Âaptitude update
Âaptitude install bridge-utils build-essential libncurses5-dev dpkg-dev debhelper fakeroot uuid-dev iasl texinfo git-core
Âapt-get build-dep xen-3.3

Â2- Download, compile and install Xen and its tools:

Âcd /usr/src
Âwget http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/4.0.1/xen-4.0.1.tar.gz
Âtar xf xen-4.0.1.tar.gz
Âcd xen-4.0.1
Âmake xen
Âmake tools
Âmake stubdom
Âmake install-xen
# make install-tools
Âmake install-tools PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG=
Âmake install-stubdom


Â3- Download, compile and install Linux from the Jemery's tree:

Âmake prep-kernels
Âwget http://livexen01.worldweb.com.br/linux-config-2.6.23.18-xen-4.0.1-1-tcmc-10.08-1 -O build-linux-2.6-pvops_x86_64/.config
Âcd build-linux-2.6-pvops_x86_64
Âmake menuconfig # Change whatever you want, if you now what you're doing...
Âmake
Âchmod g-s /usr/src/ -R
Âmake deb-pkg
Âdpkg -i ../linux-image-2.6.32.18-tcmc-10.08-1-xen_2.6.32.18-tcmc-10.08-1-xen-*.deb
Âdepmod 2.6.32.18-tcmc-10.08-1-xen
Âupdate-initramfs -c -k 2.6.32.18-tcmc-10.08-1-xen

Â4- Enable Xen at boot:

Âupdate-rc.d xend defaults 20 21
Âupdate-rc.d xendomains defaults 21 20

Â5- Configure the Grub2:

Âvim /etc/grub.d/40_custom

---- cut here ----
#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries. Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment. Be careful not to change
# the âexec tailâ line above.

menuentry 'Xen 4.0.1, Ubuntu 10.4 kernel 2.6.32.18' {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ recordfail
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ insmod ext2
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ set root='(hd0,4)'
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ multiboot (hd0,4)/boot/xen-4.0.1.gz dummy=dummy dom0_mem=832M
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ module (hd0,4)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32.18-tcmc-10.08-1-xen dummy=dummy root=/dev/sda4 i915.modeset=0 earlyprintk=xen ro
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ module (hd0,4)/boot/initrd.img-2.6.32.18-tcmc-10.08-1-xen
}
---- cut here ----

ÂNOTE.: Pay attention to you root partition and also you'll need to disable the KMS (maybe the nomodeset option works for you) of your videoboard.

Âupdate-grub
Âreboot

ÂChoose the right Grub2 menu entry...

ÂDone!

Cheers!
Thiago
