Hi List,

I tried to install fedora on a XEN system running with Debian Sarge.

Following the HowTo

yum -c
http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/yum-xen.conf --installroot=/mnt/fedora/ -y
groupinstall Base
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

   No module named rpm

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.3.5 (#2, May  4 2005, 08:51:39)
[GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12)]

Installing rpm brought:

apt-get install rpm
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
rpm is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 212 not upgraded.

and

apt-get install python
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
python is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 212 not upgraded.


well, what do I miss?
