Extract the patch file from mercurial hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg cd xen-unstable.hg hg log --patch -r 0c0ef61de06b > ~/rpm/SOURCES/large-disks.patch 2. Grab the latest kernel src.rpm file & install it locally rpm -ivh kernel-XXXXXX.src.rpm cd ~/rpm/SPECS 3. Edit the kenrel.spec file, incrementing release tag, Release: %{release}.1xen2tbtest Add Patch30000: large-disks.patch And in the %setup section %patch30000 -p1 4. Rebuild the Xen kernel for i686 rpmbuild --target i686 --define 'buildup 0' --define 'buildsmp 0' --define 'buildkdump 0' -ba kernel-2.6.spec ..wait 30 minutes or so... You should now have a shiny new kernel-xen RPM ready for install in Dom0/DomU Regards, Dan. -- |=- Red Hat, Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Boston. +1 978 392 2496 -=| |=- Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ -=| |=- Projects: http://freshmeat.net/~danielpb/ -=| |=- GnuPG: 7D3B9505 F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 -=| -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
