for 10.10 and 11.04, the -server kernel *may* provide you with what you need. The -virtual first began as just the -server kernel with a subset of modules, but then moved a bit away. I think they both install into the same /lib/modules directory, and the drdb module might "just work". Other than that, you'll have to basically re-build the kernel from the -virtual config, but enable the drdb module. Might be some other way of doing that also. The -extra package is a nice feature add for -virtual. -- Ubuntu-cloud mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-cloud
