Hi all,
does anyone know where I can download kernel-xen- 2.6.18-164.el5 for CentOS 5? I can't install it with yum, since yum has a much newer version already. I have searched google, but can't find a download link, only a lot of references to the kernel w.r.t problems.

Works for me. Regards.

Thanx Gotz,
this link, like all the others that I found isn't working. Do you by any chance have the RPM somewhere that I can download from FTP? I'm looking for a x64 version, for CentOS 5.4

isn't that the stock 5.4 kernel? http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.4/os/x86_64/CentOS/
(replace x86_64 with i386 if needed)

Nope, there's a newer kernel installed already. I need this particular older one for one of the XEN domU's on this server, and don't want to downgrade the running kernel and reboot the server

so what? you can download the old kernel from John's link and do whatever you want with it. It's there... Did you click on the link he provided??

man yum,
look at the --showduplicates option. you can then use the output to have yum with specific versions eg:
yum install <pkg>-<version>

you have to reboot the VM (I assume you mean this by "server"?), anyway, for a new kernel.

I think the OP does not want to reboot xen itself and the dom0 VM or any of the virtual machines, *except* the one with the 'bad' kernel.

Yup, that's exactly what I want todo :) But I can't find this kernel's RPM on the internet to install it on the dom0 host....

You don't have to install the kernel rpm to dom0/host.
You can install the kernel only to domU, and use Xen pygrub to load the domU grub.conf and kernel+initrd from the guests filesystem.
Are you really saying you can't find that kernel rpm? It's available from every CentOS (FTP) mirror.

The application, fluidVM, that I'm using relies on the kernel to be installed on the host dom0 in order for the domU to work - i.e. it doesn't use pygub. But I got it working with "yum search kernel-xen --showduplicates"
