Kernel installation: with lenny repositories
== Kernel installation ==
 
=== 1. Using openvz kernel repositories ===
{{Note|In case you want to recompile the OpenVZ kernel yourself on Debian, see [[Compiling the OpenVZ kernel (the Debian way)]].}}
</pre>
==== Configuring the bootloader ====
In case GRUB is used as the boot loader, it will be configured automatically, or execute update-grub; lines similar to these will be added to the <tt>/boot/grub/menu.lst</tt> file:
{{Note|per default on debian/ubuntu, a 2.6.22 kernel will boot before a 2.6.18, please check manually the grub boot order. See man update-grub for more details}}
 
=== 2 Using Debian lenny repositories ===
 
If you upgrade to lenny, you can search openvz kernel and can install with:
<pre>
apt-get install linux-image-openvz-686
</pre>
this command will install latest kernel and all required packages like:
<pre>
iproute libatm1 linux-image-2.6.26-1-openvz-686 linux-image-openvz-686 rsync vzctl vzquota
</pre>
and will arrange grub bootloader propertly.
=== Rebooting into OpenVZ kernel ===
