Gurus, i triy to get debian 4 and xubuntu running as DomU, but what is wrong with this config file? installation always hangs after first screen and DomU crashes. system is with intel xeon 5335 with VT config file: disk = [ ''file:/export/home/debian-40r2-amd64-netinst.iso,hdb:cdrom,r'', ''file:/export/home/debian-disk.raw,hda,w'' ] memory = 1024 name = "Debian" vcpus=2 kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" builder=''hvm'' vif = [ ''type=ioemu,bridge=e1000g1'' ] on_poweroff = ''destroy'' on_reboot = ''restart'' on_crash = ''preserve'' boot=''d'' vnc=1 vnclisten="0.0.0.0" vncpasswd='''' serial=''null'' usb=1 usbdevice="tablet" device_model = ''/usr/lib/xen/bin/amd64/qemu-dm'' remark: debian-disk.raw was made with qemu-img I have got Win XP and Vista running as DomU, but no chance with Linux! Is there a simple recipe for running linux as DomU? thanks for helping a bloody novice! best regards jo This message posted from opensolaris.org
How behaves virt-install performing same task ? I have positive experience only with S10U4 and Windows XP HVM DomUs. Never got an idea to run Linux as HVM DomU. This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hi I''ve been struggling with getting, snv_78 into either PV or HVM, and Linux into HVM. 1) would Linux be able to run in a PV? 2) Is it possible to get snv_78 into a HVM or PV domU? When is snv_81 slated for release?

Does it statement mean that snv_81 will become shortly available within Sun or it will become available for common download ? :-)> MRJThis message posted from opensolaris.org

I would expect it would be available for common download any time now. But I don''t claim to understand how that''s decided :-) MRJ
