AW: The right way to get an actual xen-enabledkernel-source tree?

[Carsten Schiers <carsten@schiers.de>]

Why don't you use a distribution that includes what you need, such as Debian
Etch and Lenny or CentOS, especially, if you need it stable?

BR, Carsten.

Thanks a lot for the fast answer and yes, i need it for dom0!

Does this "pv_ops"-way mean, that i would have to use an not productional usable kernel?
So perhaps it would be better for me, to patch a kernel with the 2.6.18 patchset?

If it is usable:
As i never used git before, could you please provide me the commandline to use it for a 2.6.28 kernel?

Is it like patching in that way:
1. download 2.6.28(.rcxx) vanilla-sources
2. untar and go to that directory
3. do "git something" now? 

Cheers, Florian
