Some configuring and template installation - page four

Once your system reboots open another root terminal and verify your running the openvz kernel.
uname -r

You should see the following displayed;
2.6.32-5-openvz-amd64

Now, to create a virtual machine with OpenVZ, we need a template for the particular distribution we want to use in the virtual machine. You can find a list of pre-created templates at;
http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/template/precreated.

 We will start by downloading a minimal Debian Squeeze amd64  template to the /var/lib/vz/template/cache directory, since this is where templates are stored.
cd /var/lib/vz/template/cache

wget http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/contrib/debian-6.0-amd64-minimal.tar.gz


     Note; If your host is an i386 system, you cannot use an amd64 template - you must use i386 templates.
