i recently installed fedora core 6 and even the xen kernel which shipped with it. i could successfully start xen dom0 but i have problems installing domUs.

1) I downloaded fedora.fc6.20070313.img.tar.bz2_FILES.gz from jailtime.org and modified fedora.fc6.xen3.cfg as follows:



kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen"
memory = 256
name = "fedora.fc6"
vif = [ '' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = ['file:/xen/fedora/fedora.fc6.img,sda1,w', 'file:/xen/fedora/fedora.swap,sda2,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

output when i use xm create -c fedora.fc6.xen3.cfg :

After searching the net for a solution i found this:

mkinitrd -f --with=ext3 --preload=ext3  --preload=xenblk --fstab=/mnt/etc/fstab --omit-raid-modules --omit-lvm-modules /boot/initrd- fedora-6.img 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen

and i modified the cfg file to conatain ramdisk path as follows:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-fedora-6.img"
memory = 256
name = "fedora.fc6"

dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = ['file:/xen/fedora/fedora.fc6.img,sda1,w', 'file:/xen/fedora/fedora.swap,sda2,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

output when i use xm create -c fedora.fc6.xen3.cfg :

the boot hangs here. tried a lot to figure this out but nothing works.

2) I tried to install fc6 domU using virtual manger.

i created a disk image of size 3GB.

used apache to mount my dvd to /var/www/html/fc6

and started virtual manager. everything went fine and the GUI console started the fc6 installation from dvd. After some time i get the error cannot find the file
/images/minstg2.img



I am using an adsl modem for connecting to internet and so i access net through the interface ppp0. the following is my ifconfig
