Package: linux-image-2.6.24-rc5-xen-686
Version: 2.6.24~rc5-1~experimental.1~snapshot.9974
Severity: normal
The 2.6.24 builds targeted for experimental seem to be missing the
various paravirt guest options. I believe this is because 2.6.24 adds
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST which enables all the others. I noticed this in
the -xen images but it seems to apply to LGUEST etc in the regular image
as well. I think you will also need CONFIG_LGUEST_GUEST=y to get a
similar config to the 2.6.23 packages.
Have you guys given any thought to enabling Xen guest support in the
regular packages and doing away with the separate Xen packages? Since
you already have CONFIG_PARAVIRT enable the additional overhead for Xen
enabling should be pretty negligible if you make
CONFIG_XEN_{BLK,NET}DEV_FRONTEND modular at the same time..
Cheers,
Ian.
