Install debs. dpkg -i vz*.deb ploop*.debIf you're having problem about overwriting files from other packages, try adding <code>vzkernel-devel-force-overwrite</code> option. 5. Modify <code>/boot/grub/menu.lst</code> packages only, with . See “configuring the bootloader” of [[Quick installation]]. 6.
