You've by now noticed that the xen-sources kernel is *very* old. It's a |
| 10 |
patched version of 2.6.18. ext4dev didn't come around until 2.6.19, and |
| 11 |
ext4 proper until 2.6.28. |

When will it be available? That's probably a question to ask Citrix. |

It's basically in their hands to release a (supported) Xen kernel that's |
| 15 |
based on a more modern Linux kernel or at least get Xen dom0 in good |
| 16 |
enough shape that it will be accepted into the mainline kernel (though |
| 17 |
I'm not holding my breath). |
