Hi,
We followed the instructions listed at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~br260/xeno-howto.
We are using Mandrake 9.2 on a P4 1.6 ghz with 512mb
of ram. We have several issues:
1). On our first boot up into
domain zero it says it can’t find any of the hardware (cdrom, hda, fd0,
etc.).
2). We get a lot of warnings when booting into domain zero and
when starting domains about files that should be in /var/lib/xen or
xeno-something.
3). xen_nat_enable doesn’t exist.
4). xen_read_console says it cannot bind to a port.
5).
Our xenctl.xml is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<domctl_defaults>
<domain_name>XenoLinux</domain_name>
<domain_size_kb>98304</domain_size_kb>
<domain_image>/boot/xenolinux.gz</domain_image>
<domain_vifs>1</domain_vifs>
<domain_init_rd>/boot/initrd.img</domain_init_rd>
<root_device>/dev/hda5</root_device>
<root_args>ro</root_args>
<args>DOMID=+</args>
<nw_ip>192.168.1.5+</nw_ip>
<nw_gw>192.168.1.1</nw_gw>
<nw_mask>255.255.255.0</nw_mask>
<max_domain_number>1000</max_domain_number>
<xi_tools_dir>/usr/local/bin/</xi_tools_dir>
</domctl_defaults>
6). Our xen-mynewdom file is as
follows:
domain new
physical grant –p/dev/hda5
domain start
7). When we create a domain with the script above, we also
get a warning about nothing in /var/lib/xen and that it cannot find /dev/hda5.
8). We can initially ping the new
domain once it has been started but cannot ssh into it.
We hope that you can shed some light on these issues.
Thank You,
Jas
