Hi Andreas,

I presume that the mentioned RC2 is an internal release?

Two questions about it:
on RC1 i saw that perl-DBD-mysql is not included any more
As we use mysql a lot from perl-scripts, its an unpleasent surprize.
Will this package be available?

Second one, more or less passed on the list,
the python script that launches xen-guest is not capable anymore to
extract the kernel/initrd from a dom-u disk-image.
That's something that was perfectly working under 10.2.

otoh, when i provide initrd&kernel explicitly, i'm perfectly able to run
10.1 guests on a 10.3 DOM-0 (both 64-bit)

Is this solved?
I presume these are "known features @suse", thus nothing for
bugzilla....
