Thank you for the tips.  Now, I just check the output of my "apt-cache
search xen" on my Debian GNU/Linux Etch AMD64 and I got many outputs.  What
are the packages I just need to setup Xen images?  Like for instance, I'm
confused which linux-images shall I install between the two (2) because they
both have the same description:

linux-image-2.6.18-5-xen-amd64
linux-image-2.6.18-5-xen-vserver-amd64

Also, what is the difference between xen-linux-system-2.6.18-5-xen-amd64 and
the xen-linux-system-2.6.18-5-xen-vserver-amd64 and which of these two shall
I install?

Please advice.

Thank you in advance.
