Xen - The Prefect Setup

Hi Guys,

Im new to this so i'll try my best........

Im having a problem compiling the domU kernel for the xen virtual boxes, the specific error is

root@ws02:~/xen/linux-2.6.11.12-xenU# make install
CHK include/linux/version.h
make[1]: `arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.
CHK include/linux/compile.h
CHK usr/initramfs_list
CC arch/xen/i386/kernel/process.o

i have NO idea what any of this means so any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks in advance

 

Do you use Debian Sarge?
This thread ( http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-09/msg00766.html ) seems to suggest that this kind of error happens if you use Debian testing or unstable.

 

Im using Kubuntu 6.06.

Sorry for the late reply.

 

All Ubuntu versions identify themselves as Debian testing/unstable. You should consider using Debian Sarge instead.

 

Ok,

Thankyou Falco.
