Hello,
Maybe it is something in userland, but I would be interested to know
what happens if you switched to a kernel from Debian Lenny e.g.:
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-686
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/linux-modules-2.6.26-2-xen-686
or an upstream kernel.org.one.
** end quote [Andy Smith]
Is this just a case of downloading and installing with dpkg? Possibly using a
custom line in the apt sources to pick up updates as well (obviously avoiding
any other packages being pulled in!). Just wondering whether updating the
kernel is a little more controlled than other packages, but I may be used to my
old UML setup and the even more restricted system I was on before (which one
escapes me!) where the kernel was updated as part of the VPS hosting platform.
Any pointers or suggestions as to ones to try, or good references on compiling
Xen kernels? I can experiment a bit on my VPS to see whether it improves
things.
