Hi,

I am new to Xen and I am trying to start a fully virtualized machine on an AMD64 base system running FC6. I have an FC2 image for booting the guests. I get the following problem when the VM starts booting. The status of the VM as seen from xm list is 'running' forever.

My config file looks like this:
name = "grc59"
builder = "hvm"
memory = "1024"
disk = [ 'file:/root/guestos/fc2_86_64/hd.img,ioemu:hda,w', ]
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:1b:ce:29, bridge=xenbr0', ]
uuid = "76e3de0e-8e6f-656c-4e06-62752c2b6641"
device_model = "/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
nographic=1
apic=1
acpi=1
pae=1
boot='c'

vcpus=1
serial = "pty" # enable serial console
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'

Can anybody please let me know what is that I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Abhishek.
