Hello

We use the default centos5 xen package

We'd like to create a centos4.5 guest


As we don't have the CD we ask for an http install

Here is how we launched virt-install and the error it returned

------------------
# virt-install
Would you like a fully virtualized guest (yes or no)? This will allow you to run unmodified operating systems. no
 What is the name of your virtual machine? centos45
 How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 512
 What would you like to use as the disk (path)? /dev/xenvps/centos45
 Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or no) no
What is the install location? http://mirrors.ircam.fr/pub/CentOS/4.5/os/i386/
Download a mirror of that site to a local HTTP repository, even if it's on your Dom0.
The best method is to download the ISO and then mount them and copy the content ?
If you're going that route, bit-torrent down the DVD, rather than the CD images, so you don't have to merge them. The bittorrent is at http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/4/isos/i386/.
