Thanks for the tests. I have now moved the updates candidates to the updates repository, so everybody who installed 7.5RC1 should see the updates soon.
If someone fails to build, maybe the git-lfs in not properly initialised. To fetch the lfs-files after git clone you can do a git lfs fetch.
weird ... after the second time installing git-lfs and again cloning the repo, it worked...
Hi,
Since we do NOT use supplemental packs but directly RPMs, it's a bit different. We got a build env dedicated to that: https://github.com/xcp-ng/xcp-ng-build-env
If you have questions, please ask @stormi
Document updated: new, simpler, branch structure for the repositories + section added to detail how we handle experimental changes to existing packages.
@borzel The button seems like it was just randomly dropped on the page. I would suggest moving it directly below the checkbox group and the boot parameters entry field.
My 2cts...
@tzirechnoy Thats ok as it would work for you. And as @stormi mentioned, there is no difference in binaries except the ones he mentioned. So you would not see any execution differences.
@maxcuttins There are two packages. User level blktap driver that you referred blktap and a builtin kernel driver blktap2. Said patch is against mainline kernel as additional driver.
You still need to have user land blktap from https://github.com/xapi-project/blktap
There are instructions lying around https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/122/how-to-build-blktap-from-sources/ to build user land blktap (its without patch).
