Hi,

I have set up an ubuntu edgy guest domain on a fiesty host domain. The installation was successful but on running xm create -c baseimage, I get the following error message:
Error: (22, 'Invalid argument')

The problem seems very similar to the one here: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2007-07/msg00361.html but I'm not able to figure out what the post means by "There was an old binary installation of the tools"

The log contents (xm log):

***************************************************************************************************************

Contents of baseimage (config file for guest domain):

#  -*- mode: python; -*-
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-xen"
memory = 128
name = "baseimage"
vif = ['bridge=xenbr0']
disk = ['file:/xen-images/guest_base.img,hda1,w','file:/xen-images/guest_base-swap.img,hda2,w']
ip = "192.168.0.101"
netmask = "255.255.255.0"
gateway = "192.168.0.1"
hostname = "baseimage"
root = "/dev/hda1 ro"
extra = "4"

**************************************************************************************************************

The IP address of the guest domain is not same as that of host domain. Host domain network config is:
IP address: 192.168.12.18
netmask: 255.255.0.0
gateway: 192.168.3.254

If anyone has any suggestions regarding this issue...plz share them with us.
Thanks
