Hey, Fedora 9 is frozen right now, so as we continue getting kernel-xen into shape, we need to be able to test installs with new kernel builds before requesting that the build gets tagged. Here's some instructions for anyone who needs to do this: 1) Checkout anaconda from git[1]: $> git-clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/anaconda.git 2) Pull down the latest installer images: $> d=$(date +%F) $> mkdir $d $> pushd $d $> wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/${arch}/os/images/xen/vmlinuz $> wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/${arch}/os/images/xen/initrd $> popd 3) Create the new images $> anaconda/scripts/upd-kernel $d $d-$kver ./kernel-xen-$kver.rpm $> cat > $d-$kver <<EOF [general] family = Fedora arch = ${arch} [images-xen] kernel = vmlinuz initrd = initrd.img EOF 4) Kick off an install: $> virt-install ... -l ./$d-$kver ... -x "method=http://mymirror/foobar/${arch}/os/"; Cheers, Mark.
