gentoo on a production server part 2
the beast is alive! now got a snazzy new gentoo machine running on a big server at a secrete location somewhere close to nuernberg.
why bother posting about it? it's a XEN domainU machine.
its running a vanilla 2.6.11.8 kernel patched with xen 2.0.7. no problem at all, untar the xen tar.gz go to linux-$VERSION-xen-sparse and run the mkbuildtree script it will take care of the patching and all the other black magic xen does.
still have to find out which init scripts dont work, if any. the clock one was a bit picky when you run gnetoo in a UML so it might get confuse here, who knows.
except for that, no changes no problems,))
wil go and continue playing...ehhm setting it up now.
still have to find a good backup solution. lvm snapshots look promising. never played with lvm before, we will see. probably end up with outa good backup so if portage breaks anything im screwed..ahhrgg.
