Re: [Xen-users] Best Distro for Xen, Software Raid and LVM

["Tony Hernandez" <ttony.hernandez@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Bruno,

I did create initrd-xen.  I might have not passed it the correct --mod options to allow raid and lvm.  Not sure which ones they need to be.

As far as the boot loader, I don't know LILO that well and there is little discussion on this list or the web about it with xen.  So I did the best I could.  When I have GRUB, I'm golden.

Hy Tony,
Do you create initrd-xen and configure your boot loader?

Hey all,

I'm looking for people's experiences with distros that work best with Xen 3.0.2, software raid, and lvm.

I've tried Ubuntu (Breezy and Dapper) and CentOs 4.3.  I wasn't satisfied with either.  When I installed Dom0, I configured the drives for software raid and lvm.  Then after downloading the Xen source, building and installing it, I couldn't get the Xen kernel to boot.  The difficulty was only componded by both distros installing LILO.

Any insight into this area would be appreciated.

Regards,

Tony Hernandez
