how to compile a xen dom0 kernel the debian way

hello,

i would like to give xen a try, but i didn't manage to compile a dom0 host kernel yet.

that's because i would like to use a recent linux kernel (2.6.20 at least), build it the debian way (with make-kpkg), and as well build some external modules (nvidia-legacy-96xx, ivtv) with module-assistent for it.

in irc (#xen or ##xen) i was told to use the ubuntu linux-source-2.6.22 2.6.22-10.30 package, and according to the changelog it should contain xen patches, but unfortunately a 'make menuconfig' in the sources didn't give any xen options in 'processor-type and features'.

so how do you compile a xen dom0 host-kernel? is it possible with recent kernel sources, and where do i find the corresponding xen patches?

thanks in advance,
jonas
