It's done for e2fsprogs-devel on F13. I should care only about :- # yum install e2fsprogs-devel The last is mentioned in XenWiki 4.0 in section - Packages required to build Xen 4.0 from source on Fedora 11, 12, or 13, in addition to all the usual development tools and libraries: yum groupinstall "Development Libraries" yum groupinstall "Development Tools" yum install transfig wget texi2html libaio-devel dev86 \ glibc-devel e2fsprogs-devel gitk mkinitrd iasl xz-devel \ bzip2-devel pciutils-libs pciutils-devel SDL-devel \ libX11-devel gtk2-devel bridge-utils PyXML \ qemu-common qemu-img mercurial glibc-devel.i686Boris --- On Tue, 9/7/10, Michal Novotny wrote: From: Michal Novotny Subject: Re: [Xen-devel] Re: [Xen-users] Step-by-step tutorial: Installing Xen 4.0.1 rpms on Fedora 13 with pvops Linux 2.6.32.x dom0 kernel To: "Boris Derzhavets" Cc: "Pasi Kärkkäinen" , "Jeremy Fitzhardinge" , xen@lists.fedoraproject.org, v...@lists.fedoraproject.org, xen-de...@lists.xensource.com, xen-us...@lists.xensource.com Date: Tuesday, September 7, 2010, 6:38 AM On 09/07/2010 12:28 PM, Boris Derzhavets wrote: > > Note about disk partitioning: Make /boot partition the primary (first) > >> partition and choose the filesystem type as "ext3" (not "ext4" - which > >>is > >> the default) > > It was written concerning Dom0 set-up on top F13 not DomU > Well, you need to have ext4 support in your dom0's e2fsprogs or directly implement in libfsimage in order to have pygrub (I don't know how are the things with pvgrub) working for PV domUs that have ext4 boot partition and this resides always in dom0.
