Hi
Does anyone know when the Xen3.2 rpm's will be part of the CentOS repo's?
CentOS 6 probably.
Upstream really can't change the Xen hypervisor too much within a release as that goes against the distribution's philosophy.
If you really want Xen 3.2, why not download the CentOS 5 rpms from xen.org and use it. It works transparently with the CentOS kernel package and updates the CentOS Xen packages.
Just remember to change the Xen kernel name in grub each time the CentOS kernel changes! I still forget to do this and it bites me all the time :-(

Cause I want to use it on a kickstart file, but someone on the kickstart list just showed me how to install those rpm's from the kickstart file, so I'll try that and see what hapens.
Do I still use the xen-2.6.18-53 kernel? kernel-xen-2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.x86_64.rpm http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/updates/x86_64/RPMS/kernel-xen-2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.x86_64.rpm
What do you mean I need to rename it in the grub menu? What happens if I don't?
