That affects XO-1 hardware being manufactured now, and C3s are among the viable CPUs for low cost, low dissipation school server style hardware. On the school server, I do my best to keep Debian a valid alternative (though the builds are Fedora based) and with a bit of packaging help most (all?) the XS specific packages could be in Debian. On the XO side, Jonas is packaging sugar and there's a mini-CDD called DebXO that seems to be quite active. I understand supporting additional hw does mean sizable work. Thanks for the fantastic work done so far. Please do consider not dropping support. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Ah - so it's not a bootable image for the host, but a kernel for the guest.

Strange vmlinuz with 2.6.18-4-xen-vserver-686
Hi! I've just done an apt-get dist-upgrade to the release Etch (wohoo!), and I'm starting to dabble with Vserver a bit, so I installed the xen-vserver kernel. Funny thing is - I can't convince Grub that it's a kernel image -- it says Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format. Every other kernel image, including the non-vserver 2.6.18-4 is ok, but vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-xen-vserver-686 looks odd. - `file` reports for /boot/vmlinuz repors a type of Linux kernel x68 boot executable RO-rootFS, bla bla. For the xen-vserver vmlinuz it says gzip compressed data. - debsums linux-image-2.6.18-4-xen-vserver-686 reports OK for all the files. Smells like a bug, but I might be doing something stupid here. Any suggestions? cheers, m -- --- Martin @ Catalyst .Net .NZ Ltd, PO Box 11-053, Manners St, Wellington WEB: http://catalyst.net.nz/ PHYS: Level 2, 150-154 Willis St OFFICE: +64(4)916-7224 UK: 0845 868 5733 ext 7224 MOB: +64(21)364-017 Make things as simple as possible, but no simpler - Einstein --- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
