Hello there, I''m trying to boot a HVM domU to no avail. My software platform is Ubuntu 7.04 running Xen 3.1.0. The kernel I had to downgrade from Ubuntu''s original 2.6.20 to Xen''s 2.6.18-xen. My hardware platform is an Athlon 64X2 3800+ running on a Asus M2A-VM motherboard. I''m running the latest BIOS and virtualization support is available and enabled on the BIOS. I tried booting FreeBSD 6.2 (amd64), but it freezes with the BTX error reported by other people when trying to boot FreeBSD in a HVM. I tried booting Ubuntu 7.04 live CD, but after the VGA grub screen it freezes with "Kernel alive", "Kernel direct mapping tables up to 18000000 @ 8000-a000". I tried booting from the Windows 2000 install CD, but I don''t get any message at all. My config file is very basic: == import os, re arch = os.uname()[4] if re.search(''64'', arch): arch_libdir = ''lib64'' else: arch_libdir = ''lib'' kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" builder=''hvm'' memory = 384 name = "MyHVMDomain" disk = [ ''file:/var/lib/xen/images/hvmexample.img,hda,w'', ''file:/var/lib/xen/images/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-amd64.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'' ] device_model = ''/usr/'' + arch_libdir + ''/xen/bin/qemu-dm'' boot="d" vnc=1 vncdisplay=1 vncpasswd='''' stdvga=0 serial=''pty'' == The output from "xm log" shows: [2007-10-05 14:09:40 2697] DEBUG (__init__:1094) XendDomainInfo.create([\047vm\047, [\047name\047, \047MyHVMDomain\047], [\047memory\047, 384], [\047vcpus\047, 1], [\047on_xend_start\047, \047ignore\047], [\047on_xend_stop\047, \047ignore\047], [\047image\047, [\047hvm\047, [\047kernel\047, \047/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader\047], [\047device_model\047, \047/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm\047], [\047pae\047, 1], [\047vcpus\047, 1], [\047boot\047, \047d\047], [\047fda\047, \047\047], [\047fdb\047, \047\047], [\047localtime\047, 0], [\047serial\047, \047pty\047], [\047stdvga\047, 0], [\047isa\047, 0], [\047nographic\047, 0], [\047soundhw\047, \047\047], [\047vnc\047, 1], [\047vncdisplay\047, 1], [\047vncunused\047, 1], [\047display\047, \047:0.0\047], [\047xauthority\047, \047/home/drebes/.Xauthority\047], [\047rtc_timeoffset\047, \0470\047], [\047monitor\047, 0], [\047acpi\047, 1], [\047apic\047, 1], [\047usb\047, 0], [\047usbdevice\047, \047\047], [\047keymap\047, \047\047], [\047vncpasswd\047, \047XXXXXXXX\047]]], [\047device\047, [\047vbd\047, [\047uname\047, \047file:/var/lib/xen/images/hvmexample.img\047], [\047dev\047, \047hda\047], [\047mode\047, \047w\047]]], [\047device\047, [\047vbd\047, [\047uname\047, \047file:/var/lib/xen/images/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-amd64.iso\047], [\047dev\047, \047hdc:cdrom\047], [\047mode\047, \047r\047]]]]) [2007-10-05 14:09:40 2697] DEBUG (__init__:1094) XendDomainInfo.constructDomain [2007-10-05 14:09:40 2697] DEBUG (__init__:1094) Balloon: 406608 KiB free; need 2048; done.
