Re: [Xen-users] Xenoppix(Xen 3.0 CD size) is released
Dear,
I found interesting feature of Xenoppix(Xen 3.0).
The kernel with Xen falls down at boot of Xenoppix on Panasonic CW-F4.
However the normal kernel boots correctly.
CW-F4 Japanese Model (I tried.)
http://panasonic.jp/pc/products/w4g/
CW-F4 Oversea Model
http://www2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/vModelDetail?displayTab=O&storeId=15001&catalogId=13401&itemId=94956&catGroupId=25095&modelNo=CF-W4GWCFZBM-EC&surfModel=CF-W4GWCFZBM-EC&cacheProgram=11002&cachePartner=7000000000000005702
This behavior is first time. We know some PCs couldn't boot with GRUB.
For example, Sharp PC-GP2-D7E.

So, shall we use Xenoppix as a tester to check availability of Xen and GRUB? :-)

>>Dear,
>>
>>We released New Xenoppix (based on Xen3.0, CD size).
>> Detail HP http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/knoppix/xen/index-en.html
>> 670MB knoppix_v4.0.2CD_20050923_xen3.0-20060104+IPAFont_cdsize.iso

>>---------------------------------
>># New Features
>> * Xen is updated to version 3.0.
>> * Host-Xenoppix(Knoppix on Domain0) boots Guest-Xenoppix(Knoppix on
>> DomainU) with same kernel and same Root FileSystem.
>> * Network is selectable; "Bridge" or "NAT". "Bridge" mode requires
>> external DHCP. "NAT" mode is independent of external network, so
>> we can boot DomainU without network connection.
>>
>># Usage
>> * Boot with "KNOPPIX/Xen3.0" at GRUB menu.
>> * GuestOS(DomainU) is booted from command line. The command name is
>> "knoppixU". When "nat" option is added, the network is NAT
>> mode. If there is no option, the network is "Bridge mode" and
>> requires external DHCP service.
>> Example: $ sudo knoppixU nat
>> CAUTION: The console shows boot sequence of GuestOS(DomainU). It
>> includes many many Error messages (Examples: Couldnt get a file
>> descriptor, mmap /dev/map: Resource temporally
>> unavailable). Don't care please.
>> * The boot of GuestOS takes about 5 minutes. :-)
>> * Xenoppix on DomainU boots with Full screen of "800x600". The
>> Xenoppix on DomainU accepts "shutdown" command . After shutdown,
>> it returns to Xenoppix on Domain0.
>>
>># Technical Detail
>> * Same Kernel(Linux2.6.13.6+Xen3.0) on Domain0 and DomainU.
>> * Same Root FileSystem(cloop file of CD-ROM) on Domain0 and DomainU.
>> * DomainU maps CD-ROM directly.
>> Description of domain setting file. disk = ['phy:/dev/cdrom,hdc,r']
>> * Device Mapper is not used.
>> The update of GuestOS is covered by"UNIONFS" of original KNOPPIX.
>> Thanks Klaus. :-)
