Install Xen 3.0.3 with Ubuntu 6.06
Posted November 13, 2006

stuff to download

Xen 3.0.3: http://www.xensource.com/download/dl_303tarballs.html

Ubuntu "dapper" 6.06 LTS: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download (get the "server" variety: ubuntu-6.06.1-server-i386.iso)

installation

Install ubuntu.

Install xen. This tutorial isn't perfect for 6.06+3.0.3 but it is pretty close: http://www.howtoforge.com/xen_3.0_ubuntu_dapper_drake

I haven't done RAID1 yet but I expect these will help:
