Hi, I have installed xen 3.0.3 on gentoo 2006.1 The machine is a laptop with amd turion x2 ML-60. I can boot into xen, xend stars normally. When I try to boot a linux livecd using HVM, there is no network interface (I used several different linux distributions). It''s not a driver problem, since the hardware is not even listed on dmesg log. While booting the livecd there is a message :

Hi, I have problem installing or running domU OS (Windows XP or Redhat 7.3). The machine runs CentOS 4.4 X86_64, Xen-3.0.3. Paravirtual domU works without problem. The problem is that when I run command "xm create <config>", nothing would happen. hvmloader does not seem get started at all. I''ve tried installing both 64bit and 32bit vnc, sdl but did not see any

Hi, As a previous thread in http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-06/msg01111.html tells, it should be possible tun run hvm domains with a physical disk. There where other threads about this, but no solution for my current problem. When I try to use a disk defined as disk = [ ''phy:data/faitest-client-generic-hvm-disk,ioemu:hda,w''] (The device is a lvm

Obviously not a very fair comparison [1]. I can''t see how this was done well at all. VMWare are a bit silly to release stuff like this, just lowers the whole game.

Hello list, I''ve installed Xen 3.0.3-testing from source on my spiffy new socket AM2 machine and I''m eager to play with fully virtualized guests. The problem is, it seems the hvmloader wasn''t installed (or built) when I built and installed Xen. I''m getting the following error : Error: Kernel image does not exist: /usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader So I did a quick

A friend of mine recommended checking out the Vyatta project. I was reviewing their website and saw endorsements of their product running on both Vmware and Xen. In fact, they have a Vmware virtual image and a beta XenServer image. However, I am running a typical Debian Lenny 64 DomU installed through the repositories. According to their installation documents, it states that the ISO can be

Greetings. I''ve been asked to work on a PXE solution for booting Xen domU''s from a network, and would like some feedback and any help anyone is willing to provide. I''ve been limiting my work to HVM domU''s at the moment, because I don''t think the NBI''s (as far as I know, these are bootloaders) that I have available work in paravirtualized

Hi! I need to install vmplayer on Xen guest with centos4.4. When I run vmplayer-config.pl I have problems with inserting vmmon module in kernel. The dmesg shows this message vmmon: Unknown symbol xen_features I read on the forums that vmware is not running on Xen. What I am wondering is if this affirmation refers also to vmplayer and if not how can I skip this problem? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am currently testing Xen on my laptop and was wondering if there was any way to enable ACPI sleep so that I can resume sessions when I''m on the go. Is this possible? If so, could you please highlight how to achieve this? Thank you. -- Mathew Brown mathewbrown@fastmail.fm -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Access all of your messages and folders

In my experiments with setting up a NAS as a VM, I can only successfully import three drives; the root drive, the cd and one more. However, I have plenty that I want to use: disk=[''file:/vserver/vm_disks/Patch.disk.xm,hda,w'', ''phy:/dev/sda,ioemu:hdd,w'', ''phy:/dev/sdb,ioemu:hde,w'', ''phy:sdc,ioemu:hdf,w'',

Hi, I''m always having problems finding actual kernel patches of Xen. Because I need other bleeding-edge kernel stuff, I need at least > 2.6.18, better still 2.6.19-rcs. I''m used to compile my own kernels, often using some additional patches, but for Xen...? Doesn''t fedora core have at least patches against 2.6.18? Where can I find them? Regards Markus

Am I right in thinking that the numbering of the versions are in synch with the gcc version that one is recommened to build with?

... that he/she would like to share. 5G bit size at most. Hey, this could be a business -- preparing generic xenable HVMLoadable images and selling them! Two new words for your linux vocabulary : xenable, hvmloadable (HMVable for short). I suppose this could be a security risk.

Hello, I saw some patches about PCI-passthrough for HVM(non-IOMMU) and I am interested in it. I want to assign my graphics card(nVidia GeForce 7900GS) to an HVM domain (Vista) in order to run 3D-intensive work(for example, 3D-games). What I want to ask is that is it really possible to pass the graphics card to HVM domain running Vista now? That is, have anyone ever successfully

I''m working on making a better xen faq. Hopefully I can use it to replace the one we now have on the wiki. I''d love to know what people think really are the most frequently asked questions? I''m going to paw through the mountains of data that is the xen-users archive and see what I see. That should be interesting, but probably not as useful as your opinions.

I finally have a xen server to play with stuff that''s causing me problems on my production servers. One of those problems is simply installing Windows 2003. Here''s what I do: Open virt-manager set up a new install: full virt 512 ram 20 gig sparse file boot off /dev/cdrom The install starts as you''d expect. When it gets to the formatting I tell it to format in NTFS.
