I am trying to setup Xen virtual servers using a Debian etch with the xen 3.0.3 provided in 32 bits mode. I am using full virtualization. I managed to get things started using the configuration provided below. I was able to run the install (with boot="d"). I even managed to start the system afterwards, and it runs correctly. But now I encounter a problem I already hit when running

Hi, I have installed xen 3.0.3 on gentoo 2006.1 The machine is a laptop with amd turion x2 ML-60. I can boot into xen, xend stars normally. When I try to boot a linux livecd using HVM, there is no network interface (I used several different linux distributions). It''s not a driver problem, since the hardware is not even listed on dmesg log. While booting the livecd there is a message :

hi, I''m new on this list and i need help from experienced users to give andswer for some questions. I sen up a dom0 (debian) and would like it to be very minimalist, just xen tools, some gnu utils and other usefull utilities. This dom0 will be used to virtualize many hvm OS like windows and some other *nix paravirtualized. Till there are no problem to view/connect to console of paravirt

we have a linux box Debian with Xen install on it for vitualizate windows enviroment. We follow this instruccion http://www.xensource.com/files/xen_install_windows.pdf but when we run "xm create win_2k.hvm" the windows installation pop up never appear. HVM file config: kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" device_model=''/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm''

I''m having some trouble working out how to make the SDL interface for HVM domUs appear. The documentation simply says "it will appear" when you start the domU, but doesn''t state what packages or libraries are needed in order for this magic to happen, or explain how to debug it if it doesn''t happen. All that I''m getting at the moment is a domU (running

Hi, i''m a little bit stuck here with creating a HVM-Windows (w2k3) Guest under Xen 3.1. I''m using ubuntu 7,10 with a 2.6.22.16-xen-patched kernel which seems to be stable for single cpu-linux guests. Cpu is a Q6600 and XD,VT and VT-d is enabled in the bios. When i create the windows guest with ''xm create w2k3 -c" (conf below) I get: "Started domain

Hi. I am running Xen 3.0.3-1 on Debian Etch. Does anyone have a sample config file for creating a windows DomU? I have the ISO file from my windows CD.

Hi there, Last night I was trying to start a HVM domU via stubdom-dm device model. Initially I did not receive any error to stdout when I did so with Xen-3.4.2. My Xen-3.4.2 installation works fine with qemu-dm (or regular HVM guests). The stubdom-dm guest I was trying to create did not really operate as I was unable to connect to the VNC console. The output of xm list showed the DomU was there,

As many of us are all too painfully aware we have completely different VNC server implementations for paravirt vs fullyvirt Xen guests. The former based on libvncserver, the latter integrated into QEMU. There are many new and interesting ideas being tried out in the VNC server space in particular wrt to virtualization and having to implement them all twice is not very desirable. Also

Hi, once again... now i have problems with HVM, when i try to start Windows XP, it appears DOM0:~# xm create /etc/xen/Windows.cfg Using config file "/etc/xen/Windows.cfg".

I''m running Xen on RHEL5. I''ve got two problems with CD-ROMs. In my .hvm file, I''ve got the following line: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/VG_Guests/WinXP-001,ioemu:hda,w'', ''file:/opt/xen_stuff/winxp.iso,hdc:cdrom,w'', ''phy:/dev/scd0,hdd:cdrom,r'' ] The first CD-ROM, (the one linking to the file winxp.iso), appears to WinXP to

Hi all! I''m trying to create a Windows domU setting vcpu=2 and cpus= "0,2", but xm vcpu-list show the second vcpu in paused state all the time. Is it necessary to use any additional parameter?

Hi all! I have recently purchased an Athlon X2 3800+ and I should like to install FreeBSD or OpenBSD in a HVM domU on Xen 3.0.3-1 dom0 (Debian packages). Is it possible? In such case, can someone recommend me a guide/howto to accomplish it? Thanks in advance.

I''m using FC5 with its Xen 3.0.2-2 package and 2.6.16-1.2118_FC5xen0 kernel. I''ve got a Pentium 9xx chip with virtualization enabled in the BIOS; it appears to be VT-enabled, since xm dmesg includes "(XEN) VMXON is done". I base my config file on example.hvm and on previous emails to this list. Unfortunately, I don''t get very far. xm create winxp.conf

In spite of reading howtos and this mailing list now for several weeks, I am still not able to get the network of my winXP guest connected to the host (opensuse 10.2) or the external network. There are some network interfaces missing on my host (peth0, vif0.0). ifconfig: eth0 Protokoll:Ethernet Hardware Adresse 00:18:8B:B3:1A:AC inet Adresse:192.168.0.66 Bcast:192.168.0.255
