restart your installation.

I would appreciate any help on getting xen to work.
Thanks,

I have no idea about what it''s not working for you, but I would suggest googling for the various posts that talk about similar cases. Use the error message for that: (xend.err ''Device 51712 (vbd) could not be connected. losetup /dev/loop0 /dev/serverA failed''), or parts of it.

Hi Pete, I had the same error. Some mirrors couldn''t be donwloaded from. I had success with the mirror that is in the virt-install man''s page, but it''s not good. Then I''d made the download of the whole mirror and done it in localhost, and it worked. If you have success doing this, post here please. I wanna know too.
