Hi! Xen 3.0.2 was released yeaterday and the new kernel patch shipped doesn't provide the xen arch any longer, making xen a subarchitecture of x86 as Tore has explained. The bad news is that now make-kpkg fails when trying to build a xen kernel... Here is the build log, it seems that

* Tore Anderson I think that file is only used if ARCH=xen. Which is correct for all released versions of Xen, but the new implementation that eventually will be merged into the kernel sources use ARCH=i386 (or x86_64), and then you choose Xen-compatible when asked for Subarchitecture Type

Hi, I would be happy to add support, but I do not use Xen, and I can't test it. If you could tell me how you build Xen images manually (without kernel-package, just with the KConfig build system), and any suggestions on how one could distinguish between a normal i386 build and

Package: kernel-package Severity: wishlist Hi. It seems make-kpkg fails at building a kernel image with Xen as an x86 subarch, because it expects a bzImage, whereas Xen can only start plain vmlinuz images (the Xen hypervisor itself is the only thing that needs an x86 boot sector). It
