Hi, are you planning to add ebuild for gentoo?
I think will do so in a month or so. Kir had already done some of this and successfully installed kernel on his notebook ))
This is what I found on Gentoo. http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=sys-kernel;name=openvz-sources My first post here, and congratulations on OpenVZ, from a current VZ customer.
Thanks! We do our best to bring 64bit archs ASAP and templates for them. I hope VZ2.7 won't disappoint you as well!
I was wondering how does vzpkgxxxx's RPM based stuff will fit within Gentoo, a source based distro? I'm aware of rpm on Gentoo and having Gentoo as a based OS and other distros running on OpenVZ on top of Gentoo would be very nice. In fact, Gentoo as a template would also be very nice as well.
There will probably be no support for Gentoo in openvz package tools, since it doesn't make any sense. Still, we are working to have a precreated Gentoo template for openvz.
It surely is great to having gentoo template. I'll even play with it in my VZ machine. (I read from somewhere in this forum that commercial VZ supports templates from openvz.) I do agree with you about openvz pkg tools. But then why exists openvz-sources on gentoo portage at all? Just curious.
Having OpenVZ sources (and vzctl, and vzquota) in Gentoo is for Gentoo people to try/use OpenVZ. We will probably port vzpkg tools to Gentoo as well, so it will be possible to create/update OS templates supported by vzpkg on a Gentoo box. This does not mean there will be gentoo support in vzpkg; rather it will be able to install RedHat/CentOS/Fedora/whatever VPSs on a Gentoo hardware node. Commercial VZ will not support Gentoo as a host system.
