Hi folks,


Debian 5.0 including X


I download the template, debian-5.0-x86.tar.gz, on;
http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/

But the VE, the guest, created doesn't include X.


I need to install a full version of Debian 5.0 including X. Please advise which template I have to install? TIA

Hi,

to install anything inside VE use apt-get.

If I understand your advice correctly I must create the VE (container) with minimal installation and from there to install other packages. I can't create a VE with a full version template which doesn't exist.

I must forward the X window of the VE to host and run its X packages on the host. That is what I'm doing.

Before reading your reply to my posting I tried several hours to run X packages direct on VE without result. I can start X direct on VE and it would kill the X window of the host automatically before starting.


Thanks again for your advice.
