RE: [Xen-users] Debian Lenny & LVM Partitions

["Alan" <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Fajar,

 

It is a fresh debootstrap install, with the kernel on the domU booting with pygrub.

 

The reason I prefer the domU to be partitioned as per a normal non Xen install is I can mount different folders with different permissions etc. For example, /tmp as noexec/nosuid.

 

I might try doing an install onto a standard partition setup (no LVM) and see how it goes.

 

For the record, I've done this method with Ubuntu 7.10/8.04/8.10 with no issues.

 

Regards,

Alan

How did you install domU? Is it fresh install, or did you copy it from

a live system?

Where is the kernel located? dom0 or domU (booted with pygrub)?

 

If it's a new system it'd be lot easier to simply create a new domU

with debootstrap, and NOT using LVM or partition on domU side.
