Re: [Xen-users] help on FreeBSD using hvm
Hi again,
well, sdl was not working because I was calling xm from root and Xserver
was started from another user.
I had to switch to that user and :
xhost +local:root
to allow root to start X applications from localhost.
Now, at last I see a window with a FreeBSD installation going on ... but
not everything is good news ... the domain crashes when the countdown in
the freebsd splash window ends.
Logs at /var/log/xen doesn't say much about the crash ... how can I
debug this deeply?
Thanks,
Sergi
