Hi all,

In XCP document, there are many points refering to Linux Pack and the
document tell "Installing Linux VMs requires the Linux Pack to be installed
onto the Xen Cloud Platform
host." But it doesn't tell where to get the "Linux Pack" and I failed
to find any link to Linux Pack from
http://www.xen.org/products/cloud_source.html. Have anyone experience the
same problem please?  Could someone give some msg pls?

Thanks

Best,

This is something I missed when doing the transition of documents from Citrix XenServer to Open Source XCP. The Linux Pack refers only to the templates-- these just make installing linux convenient. I will remove the information from the documents.



Thanks.

Actually the templates are part of base XCP and you can install a Linux
distro from upstream media (or network mirror) without the Linux pack.

The Linux pack is a XenServer-ism which contains only the prepackaged
Debian Etch template filesystem.
