installing xen on testing

2008-08-15 Thread edu gargiulo
Hi all,

I'm trying to install xen on debian/testing, but having problems with it.
The available xen-kernels don't add entries for them in menu.lst grub
file, and if I add them by hand, the system hangs (kernel panic) on
boot.
It is a clean install of lenny-i386 official snapshot 20080805.
Hints to install xen on debian/testing are welcome.

kernels  2.6.18 does not have xen dom0 support, you have to use etch
kernel 2.6.18

Ok, thanks for your hint!

What about the others packages of xen (i.e. xen-hypervisor), should I
downgrade them to etch too or just only the kernel and modules?
