I am attempting to install a paravitualized F7 guest (from this location http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Everything/i386/os/) onto an FC7 Domu (kernel 2925). It goes through the download process, but continues to fail on the following line from the debug console (Alt-F3): INFO: 519444 kB are available INFO: transferring http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Everything/i386/os/disc1/images/stage2.img to a fd This occurs whether I install to a file system (in /var/lib/xen/images) or to a raw partition. Is there a simple config issue which I am not selecting? -- bk

For initial install use http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/ Once installed you can still access all Fedora RPMs. Regards, Dan. -- |=- Red Hat, Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Boston. +1 978 392 2496 -=| |=- Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ -=| |=- Projects: http://freshmeat.net/~danielpb/ -=| |=- GnuPG: 7D3B9505 F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 -=|

Re: [Fedora-xen] F7 guest install failing on stage2.img
Thanks... same issue tho: 519444 kB are available http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/i386/os//images/stage2.img to a fd http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/i386/os//disc1/images/stage2.img to a fd I am using the virt-manager GUI with no kickstart file. Is that a bad config? -- bk Daniel P.
