similar to: Xen status in lenny / linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen in sid with dom0 support included

Hello, The email (thread) below from xen-devel mailinglist indicates the changesets that should fix the bug that causes the lenny 2.6.26 xen kernel to crash on newer xen hypervisors. The workaround for this bug has been to use pci=nomsi on the dom0 kernel cmdline, but it would be better to apply the actual fix to the xen kernel in lenny. More information on xen-devel (archives). -- Pasi

Hello, I guess it possible distro specific issue but is it resolvable? I have one node(testing purpose) ganeti 2.0.1 cluster installed over Debian5 Lenny. Almost everything from distro repositories. Only ganeti 2.0.1 and ganeti-debootstrap are from sources. I have it successful run with vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-xen-686 and initrd.img-2.6.26-2-xen-686 from repositories. Both Dom0 and DomU are use the

Hello, I see the new Xen packages now really in Sid and even in Lenny on packages.debian.org: http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=linux-image+xen+amd64&searchon=names&suite=testing&section=all http://packages.debian.org/lenny/xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64 Does this mean there is now official Xen amb64 and dom0 support in Lenny? I am running it now for a while without

Hello, I can''t solve my problem. I want a 32 bits Lenny domU into a 64 bits Lenny dom0. I plan to use pygrub for that (xen 3.2.1). So, I tried to debootstrap a 32 bits domU into a 64 bits dom0. debootstrap --arch=i386 --include=libc6-xen,firmware-bnx2,linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-686,linux-modules-xen-686,linux-image-xen-686,grub --components=main,contrib,non-free lenny /mnt/xen

Hi, Recently I have installed Debian Lenny on two different machines (different ram size, disks, Xeon dual and quad core, filesystems both xfs and ext3, etc).

Package: xen-utils-3.2-1 Version: 3.2.1-2 Severity: important Hi, I set the severity to important as it seems that current xen tools does not allow to load amd64 Debian kernel in DomU. I also put the debian-kernel ML in CC as I'm not sure the problem comes from xen tools or the kernel itself. Here is my configuration: Hypervisor: xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64 3.2.1-2

I've just done a fresh lenny amd64 install, and taken the xm-debian.cfg example: http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/netboot/xen/xm-debian.cfg and built a 32 bit lenny inside a 64 bit lenny dom0 # xm create -c xm-th2.cfg install=true install-installer=http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/ When I try to boot the domU: # xm create -c xm-debian.cfg it

Hi, AFAIK, the status of Xen in lenny is currently the following: - no dom0 kernel - domU kernel only for i386 (no domU kernel for amd64) I was told (I don't remember where) that this is because the vanilla kernel only supports domU for i386, and has no dom0 support, so distros have to port the patches to their kernels (please correct me if I'm wrong). However: - etch shipped with dom0

Dear all, I have a reproducible issue with centos54 dom0 and debian lenny domU using pygrub. As far as I enter "shutdown -r now" in the running Debian Lenny DomU the whole system hangs. Keyboard is dead, network is dead and no more logging. Ending up in a hardware reset of the box. I was able to reproduce this 3 times. Restarting with xm reboot debian50 works without problems. Is there

Hi! I need to have a modified entry for CONFIG_HZ in the Dom-U kernel. I installed Lenny, then installed the xen-enabled kernel linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-686 and also the sources (apt-get source linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-686). However, there is no .config file in this package. So make menuconfig starts with the default values. However, when I compile a new kernel with XEN enabled (and my new timer

Are there instructions anywhere for setting up dom0 under Debian Lenny on amd64? Are there suitable Debian packages? James. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hello, My domU's with Lenny do work without problems, but when I try to use Etch I can start the domU, but I cannot ping the domU.

Hi, I''ve been trying to build dom0 and xen hypervisor package for my thinkpad laptop, but it''s not an easy task. Has anybody done that? Note that I''m not interested in running anything but Debian packages, I think it''s a too ugly setup otherwise, and I don''t want c**p on my laptop.

Hi maintainers, I'm writing you because there's a bug in the kernel package affects specially xen. Although it's assigned to the kernel team, the bug affect to the people that use the xen version of the kernels and the hypervisor. The bug is #524571 and probably it's a xen upstream bug. I would ask you if you could look on it, or ask to upstream. I'm asking it because to

Hi, Freeze is coming closer, and it starts more and more to look like there will be no (complete, especially lacking dom0 Kernel patches) Xen support in lenny if nothing changes, like: 2) Some people come together and try to work out the needed patches for the newest Kernels and make them available in Debian. (I don't know what's the newest available patchset, would be interesting to
