similar to: Bug#588839: pv-grub removed ?

so it appears that PVGRUB requires that I specifiy (in my domain config file) either the -x86_64 or the -x86_32 version. Does anyone have a clever way I can let my users switch between x86_64 and i386 without giving them access to the domain config file? Preferably, something more secure than PyGRUB? I was considering hacking up PyGRUB so that it only allows the user a choice of

After hours of googling and not really finding a definitive solution to my problem, I''m a little stuck and would really appreciate some help from others. I have a CentOS 5.4 x86-64 server running Xen 3.3 from the gitco repos as dom0. On this I have created two logical volumes comprising 8GB for the system disk (xvda) and 1.5GB for swap (xvdb). I ran mkfs.ext3 and mkswap on these to

Hello I''m trying to convert a HVM to PV dom0. The domU is a 10SP2 SLED ( Kernel 2.6.16.60-0.21 i386) and is a SLES11SP2 dom0 (Kernel 3.0.13-0.27-xen 64bit). The truth is that every tutorial I see it differently and I do not know where this error. When I start the domU, pvgrub shows the options but when I select the kenel-xen, returns the error "Boot loader did not return any

Hello, I am still confused: does pyGrub run in dom0 as root? as it says in here: "PyGRUB used to act as a “PV bootloader”: it runs in dom0 as root, opens the PV disk image, reads its GRUB menu.lst, presents a GRUB-like menu to let the user choose a kernel which it copies to the dom0 filesystem, it then closes the disk image and eventually tells the domain builder to use that copy. Such a

Hi all, I use xen-4.0.1 from unstable repository (built from the source with pbuilder) and I can't find pv-grub on my hard disk. I don't find anything related to this in changelog nor on the web.

pv-grub is also the best/only way to run hurd under xen: http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/microkernel/mach/gnumach/ports/xen.html#index4h1 it's also the best way by far to run netbsd without a separate /boot Cheers, Brian Szymanski -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hey all, I have need to boot 32bit domu''s on a amd64 system. I was able to deploy a 32bit image but the kernel is still 64bit. I have a feeling in my .cfg file for the domU I need to specify a 32bit kernel.

Hello, I have successfully used the following command line, but I would like to have some modifications. I would like the virtual disks to show up as disk paritions, rather than entire disks. 1) is there a way to do this via the command line, and 2) are there any real performance differences? virt-install -n daffy -r256 -f /dev/VolGroup01/root_daff -f /dev/ VolGroup01/swap_daff -f

Hi, to make transitions more convenient, I've done this by using uuid instead of device names. If you ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid inside your domU, you'll see something like lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 5.

Hi all, Sorry to post OT but I'm a bit stuck and I thought someone may know the answer. Originally I installed Red Hat 5.2 with 2 paritions, boot and root. I upgraded to Red Hat 6 (kept the original filesystem) without a problem some time ago, but now I want to upgrade to 7.2. When trying to install the upgrade it tells me that the boot parition isnt big enough (by about 90k!) so I thought

Hello, The attached patch adds bzip2 and lzma/xz libs to stubdom for pvgrub. This is the first step of getting the additional compression methods supported in pvgrub. There''s still some Makefile voodoo to sort out before pvgrub actually properly gets linked against these new libs. This patch only adds the libs and makes them build. -- Pasi
