Stable

Edit apt settings

add to your "/etc/apt/sources.list"

 deb http://debian.systs.org/ stable openvz

and get the new package lists

# apt-get update

Packages at debian.systs.org (dso)

precreated OpenVZ Debian Packages:

kernel(s) for i368 and amd64

 ovzkernel-2.6.9      
 ovzkernel-2.6.9-smp

 ovzkernel-2.6.16      
 ovzkernel-2.6.16-smp

 ovzkernel-2.6.18      
 ovzkernel-2.6.18-smp

i386 only:

 ovzkernel-2.6.18-enterprise    

OpenVZ tool(s) for i386 and amd64

 vzctl
 vzquota
 vzprocps

template(s) for i368 and amd64 : Debian 3.1 Minimal

 vzctl-ostmpl-debian

Installing the kernels and OpenVZ toolset

Example: install the stable OpenVZ kernel, tools and debian OS Template

# aptitude install ovzkernel-2.6.9 vzctl vzquota vzctl-ostmpl-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 :-)


Etch (testing)

OpenVZ is now a part of Debian Etch (a.k.a. "testing") repository. This article describes how to install OpenVZ on a Debian Etch system.

Installing the utilities and kernel patch

To install the kernel-source, OpenVZ kernel patch and utilities, run the following:

apt-get update
apt-get install linux-source-2.6.18 kernel-patch-openvz vzctl vzquota

Creating the kernel package

First you need to unpack the kernel:

cd /usr/src
tar xjf linux-source-2.6.18.tar.bz2
cd linux-source-2.6.18

Next, you need to get a kernel config. You can use the config of the debian-kernel:

cp /boot/config-2.6.18-3-686 .config

Now you can apply openvz kernel patch and compile the kernel:

make-kpkg --append_to_version=-1-openvz --added_patches=openvz --revision=1 kernel_image

You will have to answer some config-questions.

Install the kernel package

Install the kernel and update initramfs:

cd ..
dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.18-1-openvz_1_i386.deb
update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.18-1-openvz
update-grub

Just reboot into your new openvz-kernel.
