Description Rik van Riel 2006-08-07 20:27:00 UTC 
Description of problem:

Anaconda needs to be able to install paravirtualized RHEL4.5 guests.
Comment 2 James Laska 2006-08-29 12:04:13 UTC 
What changes would be required in anaconda to support 4.5 PV installs? 
xenguest-install.py script?
Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2006-08-29 12:29:38 UTC 
No, xenguest-install runs in the host (dom0) which we're not planning on doing
for RHEL4

This is more the necessary anaconda changes to handle the xen kernel and all of
the Xen-specific devices, etc
Comment 5 Jeremy Katz 2006-10-18 20:28:40 UTC 
First pass committed... from here on out, it's bug fixes, right? :-)

Will put in MODIFIED once I've given it a quick runthrough on a tree
Comment 6 Brian Stein 2006-11-16 23:26:19 UTC 
Jeremy - Where does this stand?
Comment 8 Jeremy Katz 2006-11-28 22:14:24 UTC 
Packages built and should be showing up in a nightly for testing RSN.
