[CentOS] Issue with CentOS 4.5 as DomU
Hello list,
I want to virtualize my physical CentOS 4.5 yet. Therefor I download the
CentOS 4.5 iso. After mounting the iso on my notebook and make the mounted
iso available via nfs I start on my CentOS 5 xen machine following command:
virt-install -n myServer --ram=512 -f /virt/myServer.disk -s 150
--nographics -p --location=nfs:nbk:/media/centos
This works for CentOS 5 DomUs but CentOS 4.5 brings following error:
tail -n20 /var/log/xen/xend.log:

Thanks.I see that you're using x86_64 ... is the CentOS 4.5 iso that you've downloaded also x86_64 ? -- Fabian Arrotin <fabian.arrotin at arrfab.net> Solution ? echo '16i[q]sa[ln0=aln100%Pln100/snlbx]sbA0D4D465452snlbxq' | dc -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
