The util-vserver package from intrepid seems to be broken (see: [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-vserver/+bug/338390 Ubuntu Bug]), therefore I have rebuild the jaunty version for intrepid. This version ships with unstripped binaries due to another [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dietlibc/+bug/254790 Ubuntu Bug].

Disclaimer

If you are running a system in production you should probably consider building your own kernel based on the vanilla kernel source as described here: Installation_on_Linux_2.6

The binary kernel images provided here are neither official ubuntu nor official vserver kernel images.

If you have any problems with those kernels please send a mail to the Vserver mailinglist and please do not file any bugs on the ubuntu bugtracker.

If you are interested in a different kernel config or have prepared a patch for newer kernels, do not hesitate to contact the Vserver mailinglist.

Intrepid

Intrepid ships with kernel version 2.6.27. As of now (4.3.2009) there are only experimental patches available for this kernel version.

I have adapted version 2.3.0.36.4 of the vserver patch to the Intrepid kernel sources. These images should be considered experimental but seems to work.

The util-vserver package from intrepid seems to be broken (see: Ubuntu Bug), therefore I have rebuild the jaunty version for intrepid. This version ships with unstripped binaries due to another Ubuntu Bug.

Packages

The following packages are available for i386 and amd64:

  • linux-headers-2.6.27-11-vserver
  • linux-headers-vserver
  • linux-image-2.6.27-11-vserver
  • linux-image-vserver
  • linux-restricted-modules-2.6.27-11-vserver
  • linux-vserver
  • util-vserver

Known Limitations

  • linux-image
    • CONFIG_AUFS has been disabled

Repository

You can add the following key to your apt keyring: 

wget -O - http://ubuntu-vserver.pingworks.net/ubuntu-vserver.pubkey | sudo apt-key add -

Add the following line to your sources.list:

i386: 

deb http://ubuntu-vserver.pingworks.net/dists/intrepid/binary-i386 ./

amd64: 

deb http://ubuntu-vserver.pingworks.net/dists/intrepid/binary-amd64 ./

Installation 

aptitude update
aptitude install linux-image-vserver linux-headers-vserver util-vserver

Hardy

Hardy ships with kernel version 2.6.24 which is not officially supported by Linux-Vserver due to the major changes made in this kernel version.

Nevertheless I have adapted version 2.0.0.5.0.7 of the vserver patch to the Hardy kernel sources. We have run those patched kernels for about a year now without any problems on our desktop systems.

The following packages are available for i386 and amd64:

  • linux-headers-2.6.24-23-vserver
  • linux-headers-lum-2.6.24-23-vserver
  • linux-headers-vserver
  • linux-image-2.6.24-23-vserver
