I installed from the binaries at http://www.karan.org/mock/Xen/i386/ and followed the install portion of the script provided by Aaron. All seemed to go well. I then copied xmexample2 to my_xmconfig and made the following adjustments: kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen" memory = 128 vcpus = 1 nics=1 disk = [ ''phy:mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol0%d,sda1,w'' % (3+vmid) ] extra = "4 VMID=%d " % vmid needless to say, I''m trying to run the client from a LogicalVolume :) I made a snapshot of my running system (after installing xen) and copied it over to another volume (so I would have the same starting place). I fixed /etc/fstab, /etc/hosts and the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/*eth0 (replacing the IP with the next available on this test network) when I run: xm create -c my_xmconfig vmid=1 All seems to go well, up to the point that the system reports: NET: Registered protocol family 8 NET: Registered protocol family 20 EXT2-fs warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem). Freeing unused kernel memory: 184k freed Warning: unable to open an initial console. unix: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted. NET: Registered protocol family 1 Restarting system. It looks like the client spikes its CPU to 100% and restarts after about 25 seconds. It feels like it is hanging while probing for devices.. I''ve checked the logs- xend-debug.log stays empty. The vif# continues to increase in xend-hotplug.log, but that seems to follow from the fact that the client keeps restarting. By the time this last attempt gave up, xend.log was reporting dom=173. I haven''t tried disabling the network yet, but it is next on my list... Any suggestions for what I may have done wrong? What additional info would help?
