Then, use yum to upgrade the guest to FC6. yum can take a command line switch to point to a chroot path. So, if you mounted the guest into /mnt/xen_guest, you would use yum as yum --installroot=/mnt/xen_guest update or something like that. You still may need to make a workable initrd as well. There are threads here and on xensource covering the process. I don't think you're going to fix an FC5 guest and get it to run under FC6. At least paravirtualized. And BTW, I'm no expert, but I play one on the internet. hth, dave -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
