I would suggest you to be on Ubuntu 8.04.1 .
Then just reproduce :-

Now you need to install xen-ified kernel. The choice is yours . It also depends on
on your Linux, for example :-

What Linux are you on ?

Hi Boris,
I freshly executed the below commands.

# cd /usr/src
# tar zxvf xen-3.3.1.tar.gz
# cd xen-3.3.1
# make xen
# make install-xen
# make tools
# make install-tools

They all executed successfully and a xen.gz has been created in /boot. However there is no kernel image for me to create an entry in the /boot/grub/menu.lst.
How can i boot into dom0 in this case and also install domU?

Regards
Ananth

Looks like Debian xen-ified kernel
Native Xen should be 3.2.1
However:-

>xen_major              : 3
>xen_minor              : 3
>xen_extra              : .1

Did you make a port Xen 3.3.1 ?

# cd /usr/src
# tar zxvf xen-3.3.1.tar.gz
# cd xen-3.3.1
# make xen
# make install-xen
# make tools
# make install-tools


Boris.

I am not sure "xen-devel" mailing list would be a right place for this thread.
"xen-users" mailing list  would be better. Please post:-
# xm info

Hi
Thanks for the quick response. brctl show returned bridge name eth0 .
I still get the same error after I modified the config file as you had mentioned.

Regards
Ananth

Try:-
# brctl show
It will report your xen-bridge. Say eth0.
Fix vif= [ 'bridge=eth0']
See what happens.

Hello,
When I install guest OS on xen using "xm create /path/of/file/ubuntu.cfg -c" , I am getting an error message
"Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working" . I also saw that hotplugs and udev are prerequisites to be installed before compiling xen. I could not find hotplugs in Yast. However i installed udev.
My vif value in the config file is set to [' '].

Please guide me through this.

Thank you.

Warm Regards
Ananth
