Hi, I am having the following setup: the kernel displays its messages to vga and to ttyS0. This works without xen. When I reboot my system with xen with the following options to xen and vmlinuz, xen.gz com1=115200,8n1 console=com1,vga vmlinuz console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 the system hangs up while booting the dom0 kernel. Has anyone such a setup working? The thin is, I want a console on

The following is a pxelinux problem, specifically to do with including config files with the menu include directive and the ifcpu64.c32 com module. I have a working ifcpu64.c32 setup that jumps to the label rescue64 in the case of a 64-bit CPU. The label "rescue64" defines a 64-bit kernel and a 64-bit initrd.img. The setup jumps to a label named "rescue32" in the case of a

Looking at the FAQ for SysLinux there is an option for an initrd file (initrd=filename), this does not seem to work with pxelinux (or it is just that I am doing something wrong...). here is my config file: prompt 1 #serial 0 115200 label linux kernel vmlinuz-2.4.18-ssi #read-write #root=/dev/ram0 append init=/linuxrc console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200 initrd initrd-2.4.18-ssi.img label local

Hi- I am having a weird problem with setting dom0 kernel output to the serial console with Xen 3.0.4-1, below is my grub setting. With this setting if I don''t enter the grub menu and have the default boot to the first image, everything works fine and I can get output/input to the serial console. The problem is when I enter the grub menu and select the image to boot from, if I

Create a new directory (builder/template). Integrate all of the scripts into a single program, so that templates are generated more consistently. This also changes how the index file is generated. The script now generates the index file fragment and saves it under version control, and then generates the final index file by concatenating these. (Previously the index was written by hand which was

Alle, After upgrading from 6.4 to 6.5, our serial console configuration non longer work. We have the following upstart file: [cwfox at hilo ~]$ cat /etc/init/ttyS0.conf # ttyS0 - agetty # # This service maintains a agetty on ttyS0. stop on runlevel [S016] start on runlevel [23] respawn exec agetty -h -L -w /dev/ttyS0 115200 vt100 [cwfox at hilo ~]$ And the following in /etc/securetty:

Not the same as the other treath, but also an tty access problem. I have an old an cheap digital camera wich isn't supported by gphoto(2).

How does one use virt-install and kickstart ? I've seen others have success but I've had no joy thus far. BTW, my interactive virt-installs for centos6 guests work just fine AND I can do unattended kickstarts for vms by booting from centos6 install dvd and typing the kickstart commands from the boot: prompt. However, kickstart commands in --extra-args when used w/ virt-install just

Hello Xen Users, I am facing a problem getting my installation of XEN boot up on a Red Hat Linux Guest OS. What''s happening is that the grub loader tries to install Xen but after a while it crashes and starts rebooting recursively. I have tried both the entries listed below. I am using the following entries in the grub.conf file: title Xen-bhatia 3.0 / XenLinux-bhatia 2.6.16

I have installed the xen 3.1.0 x86_64 tarball compiled for RHEL5 on a RHEL5 system. The system in question was able to boot with the xen kernel that came with RHEL5. I untarred the tarball, and did cd /boot mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen The command exited properly and made a initrd image. The machine booted with a grub.conf entry like this: title Xen 3.1.0 root

Hi, I'm trying to get to the bottom of a problem using the combination of tboot (http://tboot.sf.net, trusted boot kernel for Intel TXT) and extlinux. TBOOT loads using the multiboot protocol, where the tboot "kernel" is loaded as the kernel, and the actual linux kernel and initrd are specified as modules. A working grub configuration looks something like:

I'm working to setup Samba as a domain member to a Windows Server active directory, and I keep hitting road blocks. There's some real terminology hurdles in the wiki. In a nutshell, my problem is this: I setup a Windows 2012 Essentials ADS domain and I ended up with zartman.local for my "domain" in Windows. So, I've got a dns zone in windows server that is domain.local

I've finally got a new machine coming that will allow me to play with virtualization. What might most of you recommend for the type of virtualization software I use. I seem to recall that xen might not be the best choice due to it's lack of development. I could be wrong, though. For the present time, all of the VMs will be Centos based. Any opinion will be appreciated. steve campbell

Rich, So, I tried to build the simple supermin app. from your blog. I can confirm that I did get to the shell when I invoked qemu-kvm. I used the standard qemu-kvm cmdline (but appended a serial console). This boots fine. ######################################################## [root at moon appliance-test]# qemu-kvm -kernel kernel -append "console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200" -initrd

I have problems getting the TIMEOUT value work the same way LILO/GRUB does it.. ie it should wait until the timeout and then use the default value. However, it goes straight for the default value without waiting a single second (and a TIMEOUT value of 500 should mean 50 seconds, as it counts in 1/10th of a second, right?)
