Hello, As I recently wrote (http://www.imsc.res.in/~kapil/blog), I created a Fedora domU on a Debian etch machine using "xen-tools" and "rinse". The latter creates a really minimal installation which can basically just run "yum" to install more stuff.
The question I have is what is a list of packages which will constitute a reasonable collection of packages for a Fedora domU. I would expect something like: yum install "Console Tools" I could compile this list by hand but I am looking for something "ready-made". I asked this question on #fedora (freenode) and was told that this is not a supported method of installing Fedora Core. As I can see from the documentation at www.fedoraproject.org --- it is indeed not! So I have a complementary question. What constitutes a supported method of installing Fedora as a domU or a chroot? To give an idea of the answer I am looking for --- something like "debootstrap". As far as I could make out the only way seems to be to boot a fully virtualised environment like "qemu" or an HVM Xen. Is that really the case? Regards, Kapil. --
