Hi

Just needed some help understanding the domain config file.

Basically the parameter "kernel=", does that refer to the kernel in
the host, or the kernel in the domain?

Many Thanks
Shahzad

To a domain-U kernel ("guest"). With "host" you probably mean domain-0.
Are you sure you read

/nils.

The location of the kernel for the domU to use, as a path within dom0's
filesystem.
