[Users] Question About Debian Squeeze OVZ Kernel

[Martin Maurer]

Hi,

The OpenVZ squeeze kernel misses updates and some important features. If you run on Debian, you can just use our Proxmox VE kernels, they are based on the stable RHEL6 branch from the OpenVZ team.
See http://download.proxmox.com/debian/dists/ 

And you can also switch completely to Proxmox VE :-)
