Hello,I know that this is fairly straightforward & supposedly documented elsewhere, but damned if I can find the info using Google. I have a "stock" CentOS 4.4 installed on /dev/sda3 (with a RHEL install on /dev/sda2). How should I create a xen-usable loop image from the CentOS partition? Would the following (paraphrased) command work from RHEL ...? dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/path/to/file.imgI understand that certain directories, like /boot, /proc & a couple of others should NOT be in the image. Is there a full list? TIA for any help you are able to provide! Y. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users |
