Hey I am having a tad bit of a problem with installing a guest OS. This is not a full vt system we are using the paravirt for now.

 

I am trying to use the xen guest config in /etc/xen/$config. This is what mine currently looks like:

 

___________________________________________________________

 

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.el5xen"

ramdisk = "/boot/xen.gz-2.6.18-92.el5"

 

extra = "ks=http://10.20.1.4/tftpboot/templates/xen-centos-5.2.ks"

 

name = "man1"

 

memory = "256"

 

root = '/dev/xvda w'

 

disk = [ 'tap:aio:/vm/man1.img,xvda,w', ]

 

vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:34:e8:06,bridge=xenbr0" ]

 

vcpus=1

___________________________________________________________

 

When I do “xm create man1 –c” I get the following:

___________________________________________________________

Xen virtual console successfully installed as xvc0

Event-channel device installed.

Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00alpha2

ide: Assuming 50MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx

[root@host_name xen]#

___________________________________________________________

 

I’m not sure why it just goes back to console without showing an errors. What is the correct xen guest config for installing with a kickstart file?

 

Thanks for the help guys
