Debian Packages used for OpenVZ (i386):
kernel(s): Version 022stab078.14
kernel-image-2.6.8-stable-ovz kernel-image-2.6.8-stable-ovz-smp kernel-image-2.6.8-stable-ovz-entnosplit kernel-image-2.6.8-stable-ovz-enterprise

Installing the utilities and kernels
Example:
- aptitude install kernel-image-2.6.8-stable-ovz vzctl vzquota vzctl-template-debian
Maybe you need to update you "linux-loader" like lilo or grub:
for the "GRUB":
# /sbin/grub-update
Reboot in your new Debian Stable OpenVZ System
# reboot
That's all :-)
Unstable
OpenVZ is now a part of Debian Sid (a.k.a. "unstable") repository. This article describes how to install OpenVZ on a Debian Sid system.
Installing the utilities and kernel patch
To install the OpenVZ kernel patch and utilities, run the following:
apt-get update apt-get install kernel-patch-openvz vzctl vzquota
Creating the kernel package
To create a kernel package, you need to download and unpack 2.6.16 “vanilla” kernel first:
cd /usr/src/ wget http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2 tar xjf linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2 cd linux-2.6.16
(Note that you do need a vanilla kernel for this, because the OpenVZ kernel patch doesn't apply cleanly to the Debian linux-source-2.6.16 package; see Debian bug #377707.)
Next, get the proper kernel config from download.openvz.org. Below is the example of using smp config for i686:
wget http://download.openvz.org/kernel/devel/026test015.1/configs/kernel-2.6.16-026test015-i686-smp.config.ovz mv kernel-2.6.16-026test015-i686-smp.config.ovz .config
Now you can apply openvz kernel patch and compile the kernel:
make-kpkg --added_patches openvz
