[Fedora-xen] Xen 3.x FC6 paravirt no issues, trying to create guest with full virt, problem
If I do a install using -p things work great, no issues, have 8+ virtuals created around using para and even on my fully virtual enabled server, I can create a guest without issue using paravirtual. If i do the same install but use the config switch -v (full virtualization) the install dumps me back saying i can reconnect but I can''t. Attempted creation: [root@devxen xen]# /usr/bin/virt-install --debug -n trub -r 1000 -m 00:16:3e:41:71:d1 --nographics --os-type=linux --os-variant=fedora6 -l /virtual.img -f /dev/mapper/dev-trub --noapic --noacpi --arch=i686 Would you like a fully virtualized guest (yes or no)? This will allow you to run unmodified operating systems. y Tue, 29 Apr 2008 14:25:34 DEBUG Path is block file: Assuming Block disk type.

You can reconnect to the console to complete the installation process.

I must be missing something, just strange. don''t see anything in logs, and my remote install is showing that it''s getting to installing some boel binaries and nothing else. What''s so different about paravirt and fullvirt? Thanks Tory
