Hey Chris,<br>
<br>
I haven't been clear.. I did build the custom kernel with the
scripts from the slackbuild after installing xen.<br>
<br>
I checked I was running domain0 by <br>
<br>
xl list<br>
<br>
<p
style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">Name
ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)</p>
<p
style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">Domain-0
0 512 4 r----- 9.2<br>
</p>
<p
style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"><br>
Its the domU I'm having trouble with. slackware installed on the
image but then I can't create domU.<br>
</p>
<p
style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"><br>
When you mention a custom kernel I assume that you mean
vmlinuz-3.10.17-xen?<br>
</p>
<br>
is that correct?<br>
<br>
I just got this to work using debian wheezy, learneda lot, but
still haven't ruled out going back to slack... I just need a wee lie
down first.. :)<br>
<br>
pretty freaky having 2 servers on one box.... ;)<br>

I understand that you need a custom kernel for dom0.</p>

think the former due to fact that we symlink
