Public bug reported: I've got my hands on a quad-core x86_64 box with 8GB an started to play with xen-3.2 using hardy, but unfortunately my mileage is very depressive, because the supplied xen-utils packages of hardy are conflicting and I've got no clue which one to install.
To be more specific, I've installed the following xen pacakges on my box: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dpkg -l | grep xen ii libxen3 3.2.0-0ubuntu4 library interface for Xen, a Virtual Machine ii linux-headers-2.6.24-7-xen 2.6.24-7.12 Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.24 on T ii linux-image-2.6.24-7-xen 2.6.24-7.12 Linux kernel image for version 2.6.24 on Thi ii python-xen-3.2 3.2.0-0ubuntu4 python bindings for Xen, a Virtual Machine M ii xen-docs-3.2 3.2.0-0ubuntu4 documentation for XEN, a Virtual Machine Mon ii xen-hypervisor-3.2 3.2.0-0ubuntu4 The Xen Hypervisor for i386 and amd64. ii xen-image-2.6.19-4-generic-amd64 2.6.19-2ubuntu7 Linux kernel image for version 2.6.19 on x86 ii xen-tools 3.8-4ubuntu1 Tools to manage debian XEN virtual servers ii xen-utils-3.2 3.2.0-0ubuntu4 XEN administrative tools Like with xen-3.1, I've tried to issuse '/etc/init.d/xend start' after configuring /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp, but xen-utils-3.2 doe not contain the xend init.d-script. Poking around I've found out, that there's a package called 'xen-util-common', which does contain the xend init.d-script. However xen-utils-common conflicts with xen-util-3.2 like follows: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# LANG=C apt-get install xen-utils-common Reading package lists...
