FAQ, which? Or do you mean the NetBSD/Xen howto?
Do you think it make sence to add a note about where the
file
xen-3.0.3_0-install-x86_32.tgz could be downloaded
(e.g. http://www.xensource.com/xen/downloads/dl_303tarballs.
html)
because this is a different to Xen 2 too.
By the way, i updated the howto's cause at the url
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/srg/netos/xen/down
loads.html
is no link anymore to download xen-2.0.x-install.tgz.
There is a http download side
(http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/srg/netos/xen/download
s/) but the new
file names
are xen-2.0.x-install-x86_32.tgz
It is not commited yet, but i think it will be in the next
days.
regards,
Rainer
