Hi Jan, thank you for your answer (BTW: I was a little distracted by other tasks and I didn't notice this message until now).
I'm trying again to install xen but I still have problems: Following the usual instructions I get the following error: builder for `/nix/store/bmr08239ljmcbws3xm6wvsmgp3mz4a1n-linux-2.6.32.24-xen-179eca5' failed Then I added the following line to configuratio.nix boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_3_2_xen; but then I get another error: Checking that all programs call by absolute paths in udev rules exist ... FAIL /etc/xen/scripts/blktap is called in udev rules but not installed by udev builder for `/nix/store/vbqrjkgha77ik3gwxghfx91bxnag3dqd-udev-rules.drv' failed with exit code 1 Does anybody have a working xen-enabled configuration.nix that works?
