1XenSource xm-test 1.1 initrds
2=============================
3
4http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/initrd-1.1-i386.img and
5http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/initrd-1.1-powerpc.img are initrds
6suitable for use with Xen's xm-test regression testing suite.  They has been
7built and provided by XenSource, for the convenience of Xen users.  xm-test
8initrds may be mixed across minor xm-test versions, but not across major
9versions; this initrd is suitable for all 1.1.x versions of xm-test (as
10shipped with Xen 3.0.4 and the unstable tree leading up to that release).
11
12In order to use one of these initrds, run "./autogen; ./configure; make
13existing" inside the xm-test directory, and the appropriate initrd for your
14architecture will be downloaded automatically.  Alternatively, if you have
15already downloaded that file, place it into the xm-test/ramdisk directory and
16run the same command.  In either case, runtest.sh can then be used as normal.
17See xm-test/README for more details.
18
19These initrds were built using the infrastructure provided by xm-test.  Each
20is a full guest operating system and filesystem, and as such includes a large
21number of pieces of software.  The source code for the majority of these are
22included in full inside the file
23http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-buildroot.tar.bz2, where
24<INITRD> is either initrd-1.1-i386 or initrd-1.1-powerpc as appropriate, or
25alongside this file.  Copyright statements and licences are contained therein.
26The remaining source code is included in the Xen distribution, at
27http://www.xensource.com/xen/downloads/archives.html.  The configurations used
28for BusyBox, uClibc, and Buildroot are available as
29http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-busybox-config,
30http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-uClibc-config, and
31http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-buildroot-config respectively,
32or alongside this file.
