Hi, I have successfully installed a CentOS VM from a DVD ISO. I would like to try a paravirtualized OS because of the better performance that is claimed. However, the install cannot access the stage2.img. As I understand this is the first network access from within the domU so it makes me think that there is something wrong with the network. Any help or pointers is appreciated, Thanks, Cam _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

What version of CentOS? And where did you put the CentOS OS image so that the network based para-virt installer can find it? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Re: [Xen-users] Network install cannot find stage2.img
Hi, The http server is on a machine that is on our public subnet. The machine I''m trying to install on is on a private subnet behind a headnode. The para-virt install I''m trying is FC6 guest, not CentOS (sorry for the confusion). I selected virtual network as the network type because no devices show up under "Shared Physical Device".
