Hello Pkg-xen-devel list,

I am running lenny with xen-linux-system-2.6.18-4-xen-686 (xen 3.0.3)
installed. I'd like to put this server in the cupboard and access it
via wifi.

To build the wifi kernel module, it should hopefully go like this :

apt-get install madwifi-source madwifi-tools
m-a a-i madwifi
modprobe ath_pci ...

Except that I do not have the sources nor the headers of my kernel.

"apt-get source xen-linux-system-$(uname -r)" copied
linux-2.6-2.6.21{,6.diff.gz,6.dsc,orig.tar.gz} in my home dir, but
"m-a a-i madwifi -k linux-2.6-2.6.21" would not work any better...

I read (ok, grepped) the last year of the mailing list archive without
much results.

How can one do to install the madwifi kernel modules on a debian xen kernel?

Thank you
