the patch gives a 404, but I installed dev86, and acpica (Based upon the cblfs book) https://github.com/qrux/xlapp/blob/master/src/xen-4.1.2-no_firmware-1.patch Installed via the following: make MAKEFLAGS="-j 1" xen tools && make install-xen install-tools (Decided to keep things simple, BTW, is -j1 the default for make? and is there a problem with the xorg check?). I have a 32bit glibc userspace, although no clue what dependencies 32bit had. I wonder if some of the kernel options have changed since 3.0/3.1 though, I was not finding a few of them easy to find now to figure out how to actually "use" xen. In a few weeks, I will be managing xen based virtual machines. (yes Bruce, the shoe is on the other foot now). Seems a bit more "integrated" then qemu is. -- Nathan Coulson (conathan) ------ Location: British Columbia, Canada Timezone: PST (-8) Webpage: http://www.nathancoulson.com -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
