setup arch on prgmr.com

I remembered that some members of this forum had successfully set up an Arch linux server on prgmr.com.
Can anyone tell me how to do that?
I just bought  a cheap VPS from prgmr.com and try to set up an Arch server on that. I followed this article on their wiki, but the kernel26-xen failed to boot.

Any suggestion?

thanks

Re: setup arch on prgmr.com

I know this post is quite old but I'm also interested in setting up Arch on prgmr.
I also only found the link kuno posted above and I'd like to read a bit more instead of just copy and pasting various commands.

So if anyone has experiences or other resources, please post them.
Maybe this could even become a wiki page (more general then of course).

What problems are you having following Arch Linux prgmr wiki?

Re: setup arch on prgmr.com

I don't want to execute a script and be done.
I would like to know what I did and what not.

I know I could read the script and do it this way but...
I actually think the way it is described there is not the "Arch"-way of doing things.

Edit: This looks useful: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … ting_Linux
Anyway feedback if this is the ideal way would be appreciated.
