Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Problem with start winxp on xen-3.3.0 using stubdom

Hi NiuYan,

 

disk = [ 'phy:/dev/cdrom1,hdc:cdrom,r', 'file:/home/images/winxp.img,hda,w' ]

Enable the hdc:cdrom configuration option in disk section is a known issue to stubdom(tested changeset 18569), you can try to remove it.

And also there a another place you can catch many of useful log message, you can edit the /usr/lib/xen/bin/stubdom-dm, change the lines as bellow:

#(while true ; do sleep 60 ; done) | /bin/sh -c "$creation" &

xterm -geometry +0+0 -e /bin/sh -c "$creation ; echo ; echo press ENTER to shut down ; read" &

it will popup a xterm window,  you can see many of messages from that.

 

 

Best regards

Wan Shuang

Subject: [Xen-users] Problem with start winxp on xen-3.3.0 using stubdom

 

There is some messages talking about start windows using stubdom on  xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, but i think it may be more proper to send it here.

---------------------------

I have start winxp on xen-3.2.0 normally, but I want to use stubdom , so I try it with xen-3.3.0, I followed the steps in stubdom/README, including:

 

$ mkdir -p /exports/usr/share/xen/qemu

$ ln -s /usr/share/xen/qemu/keymaps /exports/usr/share/xen/qemu

$ mkdir -p /exports/var/lib

$ ln -s /var/lib/xen /exports/var/lib

$ /usr/sbin/fs-backend &

 

$ xm create winxp

 

except name the configuration file with 'winxp' and 'winxp-dm'. They are as follows:

 

$ cat /etc/xen/winxp

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"

builder='hvm'

memory = 1280

name = "winxp"

vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ]

device_model = '/usr/lib/xen/bin/stubdom-dm'

boot="dc"

sdl=0

opengl=0

vnc=0

vncpasswd=''

stdvga=0

 

 

$ cat /etc/xen/winxp-dm

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/ioemu-stubdom.gz"

vif = [ '', 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ]

disk = [ 'phy:/dev/cdrom1,hdc:cdrom,r', 'file:/home/images/winxp.img,hda,w' ]

 

 

But the sdl window closed quickly after two blink.
