Ok, I''m resending this question to the users list here now that I notice that the sourceforge list sent me a message back saying it was no longer in use. :-) I downloaded xen-2.0.5-install.tgz and found the few dependency''s it needed and was able to successfully run the install.sh script and install everything. Here is what I currently have in my menu.lst/grub.conf file. I have tried *several* combinations of things but nothing has worked so far. The example listed in the README text file that comes with Xen said to use /boot/xen.tgz etc... but that always returned Error 15: File no Found. The current file doesn''t return an error but the machine very quickly resets. Perhaps someone can share their menu.lst file from a FC3 machine or shed some insight into how to properly configure grub. [root@localhost grub]# cat menu.lst # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/hda default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Xen 2.0 / XenLinux 2.6.10 root (hd0,0) kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=131072 ro console=vga module /vmlinuz-2.6.10-xen0 ro root=/dev/hda0 module /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img [root@localhost grub]# _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I am not sure if the changes above will be the only ones, in your case.

And you can grab rpm from http://www.suse.de/~garloff/linux/xen/ :) I am not using them because I had my install complete before knowing about it. I did try the file xen-2.0.5-install.tgz from the Xen download site, and I was not that successful, so I proceed to use the sources (xen-2.0.5-src.tgz) and everything went nice. -- Bye, Fernando Maciel Souto Maior fernando@araujo.com.br http://www.araujo.com.br +55+31 3270-5886 LPIC/1 # 31908 AVISO------------------------------------------------------------- Esta mensagem pode conter informacao confidencial ou privilegiada.
