Description Yunfeng Zhao 2005-09-08 08:38:14 UTC 
I can find the following 4 rpm files of xen in Installation CD1 of Suse Linux 
10.0.
kernel-xen-2.6.13-3.i586.rpm
kernel-xen-nongpl-2.6.13-3.i586.rpm
xen-3.0_6458-3.i586.rpm
xen-tools-3.0_6458-3.i586.rpm

But I cannot find them in installation packages list during installing Suse 
Linux 10.0 Beta 4.

How do you serach those packages, do you use Qt or ncurses? What about YaST
logs, do you have any, please?

I'm not sure whether I understand this bug report.

Do you mean that these packages are not in the list of packages which will be
installed? That's correct behaviour, XEN is extra feature which may not be
interesting for all users. That's why you have to select "XEN Virtualization"
selection manualy.

Yes, that's my concerns.

Seems "XEN Virtualization" doesn't include xen tools. Even through "XEN 
Virtualization" i still cannot use xend and xm commands creating xen guest 
oses.
Comment 4 Lukas Ocilka 2005-09-09 07:27:31 UTC 
XEN tools should be part of the "XEN Virtualization".
Comment 5 Stefan Dirsch 2005-09-09 07:34:37 UTC 
It is.
