You can use the latest RHEL6-based kernel builds on your Debian 6.0 machine. Here's how.
Installation
1. Get the latest kernel and utils from Download/kernel/rhel6 and Download/utils. You need
- vzkernel
- vzkernel-devel
- vzctl
- vzctl-lib
- vzquota
vzkernel-devel is optional.
2. Install fakeroot and alien.
apt-get install fakeroot alien
3. Convert all the RPMs to debs using alien.
fakeroot alien --to-deb --scripts --keep-version vz*.rpm
4. Install debs.
dpkg -i vz*.deb
If you're having problem about overwriting files from other packages, try dpkg -i --force-overwrite vz*.deb
5. Modify /boot/grub/menu.lst. See “configuring the bootloader” of Quick installation.
6. Edit /etc/sysctl.conf. See “sysctl” of Quick installation.
7. Make OpenVZ boots automatically.
update-rc.d vz defaults update-rc.d vzeventd defaults
8. Reboot.
reboot
9. Follow the Quick installation from “installing OS template caches”.
