Hi all, I need to boot a pravirtualized domU from an ISO image (linux kernel).

You can do this only with a fully virtualized gues, not with PV.

I've tried with:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-xenU"
memory = 128
name = "xen05"
#cpu = -1   # leave to Xen to pick
vif = [ 'mac=00:00:20:01:01:05, ip=x.x.x.x' ]
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/mapper/lvm1-xen05,sda1,w','phy:/dev/mapper/lvm1-xen05swap,sda2,w','file:/ISOIMAGE.iso,cdrom,r' ]
#cdrom = "/ISOIMAGE.iso"
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
boot = "/dev/sdb" (and boot="d")
# Sets runlevel 4.
extra = "4"

but it doesn't work...

Can you help me?

Thanks!


Carlo
