This page should help us to make sure the upgrade to Debian lenny is done smoothly and quickly.

Things to watch

  • Remember to check that the latest kernel (linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-686) is used the the xen configuration ('/etc/xen/HOSTNAME.conf').
  • Make sure that 'linux-modules-2.6-xen-686' and 'udev' are installed on the xen domUs. Be aware that having 'udev' mounted on '/dev' doesn't necessarily indicate that 'udev' is installed. Looking at '/dev/pts' should be better.
  • Run `find /etc/ -name \*dpkg-dist\*` and use `vimdiff` to merge changes from lenny into our customized configuration files.
  • Delete '/etc/network/options' as it's not used in lenny.
  • You might need to remove 'libsasl2'. This won't cause any problems as it's just a dummy package.
  • Configuration files where you should “install the package maintainer's version”:
    • /etc/locale.alias
