Hi Antti >>Why would you want to do that?
Mainly to be able to run a rump kernel on Amazon EC2 or Linode or some other cloud provider. If there is a way to do that via rumprun that would be great. as On 20 Apr 2015, at 4:47 pm, Antti Kantee <[email protected]> wrote: On 20/04/15 04:09, Andrew Stuart wrote: > I’ve read the documentation but it’s not entirely clear how to boot a rump > application directly using xl create instead of rumprun. > > Would someone mind clarifying please?

I don't think we'll support/document any other method than the rumprun tool. That approach has two advantages: 1) the basic syntax is the same for every platform 2) we can change how things work behind the scenes without breaking things for users You are of course completely welcome to look at what rumprun tool does on xen, and repeat that manually. However, you are not welcome to complain if the same will not work on a future version of the rumprun repo. My preference would be to improve the rumprun tool so that you don't need anything else.
