When you add "quiet" to the append line, Syslinux doesn't display the file reading progress anymore. When you use this option to boot an image with MEMDISK, you still get a lot of text. ========================== LABEL mydisk LINUX memdisk INITRD mydisk.img APPEND raw quiet ========================== The following patch makes MEMDISK silent when the quiet keyword is passed to the append line, unless there is a fatal error.

Hello All, I am using Centos 6.3 with libvirt 0.910 and qemu-kvm 0.12 I had to resize a qcow2 disk, and came across several issues; I used this command to resize the image: sudo -i /usr/bin/qemu-img /var/lib/libvirt/images/mydisk.img resize +100G . The disk is attached using virtio. I then tried to use parted from within the guest to resize the partition. The first problem was that the guest os did not see the increase disk size. Is there something that I need to do, to force the guest to see the higher disk size ? I go...

Currently guestfish has mount-vfs, and the libguestfs API has guestfs_mount_vfs(), but guestmount doesn't allow the user to specify a filesystem. This patch extends the --mount argument, so you can force an ext2 partition to mount as ext4: guestmount -a mydisk.img -m /dev/vda:/:defaults:ext4 mountpoint You could also use it to choose between ntfs and ntfs-3g, or between hfsplus and the commercial ufsd. Finally, it could be useful if blkid misidentifies the filesystem. GitHub compare doodad: https://github.com/vasi/libguestfs/compare/fuse-fstype Patch:...

Hi all, this patchset implements an emulation for the megaraid_sas HBA. It provides emulates an LSI MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 HBA, ie presenting to the guest a virtual SCSI adapter. Internally it is using aio for read/write requests and either SG_IO or SCSI command emulation for everything else. The reason for choosing the megaraid_sas HBA and not, say, implementing a virtio scsi interface is

OEL 5, OCFS 1.4, using EMC Power Path for multi pathing. I want t mount the OCFS2 file system on the emc power path device. I can mount by UUID, and not have to worry about persistent bindings across nodes. But how do I make sure when it mounts by UUID , that the pwoer path device is used. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks -- Sridhar Avantsa savantsa at gmail.com -------------- next

Good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has any in site as to how to import a VMware vmdk into xVM on OpenSolaris 2009.06 (xVM 3.1). I have a VMware VM created on VMware Server 2.0 and would like to move it over to this xVM server. I appreciate any advice anyone may have. Cheers, -Chris -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

i think that if a distribution with MS WOS XP and 7 look and feel based on Gnome and Ubuntu or debian is released a lot of people would migrate. People is comdortable with what they know, even Gnome is easy to use, they like Control panel, Documents and Settings and Start vuttons from MS WOS. If program Icons should be in desktops, an start button with a control panel, My documents and so one,

Hi all I want to shrink one of my LVM based domU''s, but don''t quite know how to do it. I have searched the Wiki & HOWTO''s, and they all show you how expand / enlarge a LVM based domU, but not shrinking it. So, I stopped (destroyed) the domU, and then resized it as follows: lvresize /dev/data/cpanel1 -L10GB (It was 100GB), but when I a started it up again, I
