xen on debian

I decided to try out xen on my development / test box. I will write a bit more about what I did, but first here are some links:

From the xensource.com site:

• Xen documentation links - links to a whole lot of docs
• Wen documentation wiki page - even more docs
• Xen 3.0 - Users’ Manual - it’s not everything but it has a lot of good information

Some HOW-TOs:

• Debian DomU HowTo - Sarge, xenU, LVM.
• The Perfect Xen 3.0 Setup For Debian - good for sarge/debian stuff
• Xen on Ubuntu Hoary HowTo - talks briefly about LVM with xen
• Xen on Ubuntu Breezy HowTo - very brief
• another Xen on Ubuntu Breezy HowTo - complete from source instructions
• Xen Virtualization and Linux Clustering - a mini-series at LinuxJournal
• a German Xen-Installation document that revealed to me a fix for my console issues on domU’s.

Pre-installed operating system images. Not really xen intended, but man is it really handy.

• Free Operating ZOO - QEMU emulator images (should work with xen if you supply the xenU kernel)
• Bochs Disk images - Bochs supplied disk images (tiny ones)

Other:

• Debian Xen 2.0.6 Packages - some older xen debian packages
• Xen 3 for Debian - home network in one machine using xen
