-  If you are upgrading from official xen 2.0.6 packages (or unofficial 2.0.7
-  ones) be careful: manual intervention is needed before you can boot into your
-  new Xen 3.0 system. In particular you *must* upgrade both your Domain 0
-  kernel and your unprivileged domains ones with a xen-flavored version of
-  Linux 2.6.12.  Instructions for how to do so are provided in the
-  README.Debian file, as they are useful for new users of Xen too.
+  This version does not longer ship the ioemu part, aka the patched qemu.
+  So it does not support
+  * full virtualized domains and
+  * virtual console support for paravirtualized domains.
 
-  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.
-
-  On the good news side: Xen 3.0 is able to automatically baloon down your
-  Domain 0 to the value specified in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp. For it to be
-  able to do so, just remove your "dom0_mem=" option from the xen kernel line in
-  your grub.conf, and also the "mem=" option from your linux module line.
