Notes for those moving to a pvops kernel (Debian lenny, Gentoo?, upstream)
http://lists.bitfolk.com/lurker/message/20080820.163101.70ccaa59.en.html
Is this still an issue with the Xen code that I need to be aware of?
cheers
Neil

Not really an issue as such.. Yes it is the case that from Debian
lenny onwards the best kernel to use is the normal
linux-image-686-bigmem one. As a Xen user under etch you will have
linux-image-xen-686, so all the upgrade will do is upgrade that. It
will take a manual install of linux-image-686-bigmem to switch
between them.
It is not crucial, as both will work.
Cheers,
Andy
