[xen-tools-discuss] centos 6, xen-tools & rinse

[Lionel Félicité]

Hi guys,

Someone in my staff found a solution for me : I use the debian kernel
(vmlinuz and initrd's files) to boot my centos domU.

I didn't want to use a kickstart file, because rinse setup is goog enough
to meet my requirement.

But my original question still exist : is this an expected behaviour or not.

Thanks guys for your concern.
