我需要安装 Xen 并开启 LVM我的专用根服务器。
Debian jessie 中的当前版本 Xen 4.4 不支持新的 Skylake intel 处理器。
我尝试了 Debian stretch，它已经发布了 Xen 4.6，并且运行良好。
在生产系统上，我现在不想运行tretch它，所以我想知道它是否可能，以及如何在 Debian 8.3 上安装 Xen 4.6？testing
据我所知，您可以将stretch来源添加到
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/stretch.list
并为其赋予一定的 Pin 优先级，以便除非另有说明，否则不会使用它。然后您必须将 Xen 4.6 所需的所有包“固定”到stretch.
有人已经这样做了吗？或者说，这种尝试存在着不可能的问题？
或者也许是一个更简单的解决方案？也许是购电协议？
答案1
您必须将stretch和stretch-updates固定到499，将jessie和jessie-updates固定到500，然后从stretch手动安装xen-hypervisor-4.6-amd64：
cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/stretch-manual-only
Package: *
Pin: release n=jessie-updates
Pin-Priority: 500
Package: *
Pin: release n=jessie
Pin-Priority: 500
Package: *
Pin: release n=stretch-updates
Pin-Priority: 499
Package: *
Pin: release n=stretch
Pin-Priority: 499
EOF
创建拉伸的源列表：
sed -e 's/ \(stable\|jessie\)/ stretch/ig' /etc/apt/sources.list > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-stretch.list
aptitude update
这些是 Xen 4.6 所需的软件包：
aptitude install xen-utils-common/stretch xen-utils-4.6/stretch xen-linux-system-amd64/stretch xen-tools xen-utils-4.6/stretch xen-hypervisor-4.6-amd64/stretch libncurses5/stretch libncursesw5/stretch libtinfo5/stretch
这将安装这些：

Need to get 72,3 MB of archives. After unpacking 279 MB will be used.
继续更改 grub 中的引导顺序：
dpkg-divert --divert /etc/grub.d/08_linux_xen --rename /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen
update-grub
按顺序检查 grub 菜单项：
grep -i "menuentry '" /boot/grub/grub.cfg|sed -r "s|--class .*$||g"|nl -v 0
现在第一行应该是
0 menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Xen hypervisor'
重新启动并玩得开心;)
