How To Set Up Xen 4.3 On Debian Wheezy (7.0.2) And Then Upgrade To Jessie This will be a quick and easy setup of XEN(dom0-hypervisor) and one virtual system (domU-guest). I wanted to test out XEN as my second experience after VMware and since many web pages are outdated and have many old fixed bugs and errors. I have decided to give it a spin with XEN.

How do I install Xen 4.3 on Wheezy like the summary says?

By:

On some machines, such as the Dell T610 I'm working on- you have to load specific drivers from the firmware/non-free package for the network interfaces to work. 

 When upgrading from Wheezy to Jessie, make sure to do an

       apt-get install firmware-bnx2   (or your appropriate package)

AFTER the upgrade, but BEFORE you reboot.  Otherwise when it reboots you'll have a machine that can't talk to the net.  In my case, for a remote install, it was highly inconvenient.
