   README.Debian file, as they are useful for new users of Xen too.
 
+  Also please note that Xen 2.0.6 has a bug and before getting removed doesn't
+  shutdown your domains. This, together with the fact that xen-utils for Xen
+  3.0 is incompatible with the 2.0 hypervisor means that you won't be able to
+  control your domains after upgrading, other than through the network. So
+  please shut them all down before upgrading to this packages.
+
+  If you want to be really sure that nothing will go wrong please reboot into
+  a normal Linux system before upgrading, upgrade from there, build the new
+  kernels, and only then start your new Xen 3.0 system.

-   Of course you have to supply your kernel path and root device in the module

+   Of course you have this example supplying your own kernel path and root

    We will provide a "roll your own xen kernel" manual and example config files
    later on. We also hope to be able to provide complete Xen kernels, sooner or
