The opensuse 10.2beta2 does not well configured the xen kernel, you should do a mkinitrd and

Hi all, When I make the ram disk for xen-3.3.0, I encounter a problem. $mkinitrd -v -f initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img 2.6.18-xen ... No module pata_marvell found for kernel 2.6.18.8-xen, aborting. Compared part of source code between linux-2.6.18-xen.hg/driver/* and linux-2.6.18/driver/*(from kernel.org), I found that linux-2.6.18-xen.hg/driver/ata doesn''t exist. ( some source code of module

Hi, had a few problems with using xen: First: built a xen from source (tgz) and make dist ... then made initrd with mkinitrd and modules=all in the mkinitrd.conf -> initrd.img was 14mb and set it up in the grub with module /initrd.... on boot it loads the initrd like: Loading ramdisk into ram .... done but then NO MODULES in the initrd are being loaded by the kernel, though initrd

hi all, i want to install xen3.1 on my system, suse linux enterprise server 10 SP1 (kernel 2.6.16.46-0.12). i download the tarball binary file. it contains only "vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen" and "xen-3.1.gz", no initrd. but see the following code in my grub menu.lst, it seems like i need the initrd file. i tried the installation with this binary Tarball, it didn''t work.

I am trying to install the binary version of xen 3.1. When I boot, after some console output, I get the following: :: Loading Initramfs scsi_mod: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.

Hi, I have an Slackware 12.1 running on Intel Core2Quad, 4 Gb RAM. (The result of dmesg is attached on this e-mail) I have downloaded ''Xen 3.3.0 official source distribution tarball'' from www.xen.org. Run make world, make install. Have no errors. Installed GRUB correctly and added the following lines on menu.list: title Xen 3.3 root (hd0,1) kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem = 262144

I''m trying to install Xen 3.0.4 But It couldn''t mount root filesystem. I''m using the board, loads AMD SB750 chipset. I''m guessing the reason that is the lack of sata driver in 2.6.16.33-xen. So, when I copy libata and ata_piix driver from other driver from compatible kernel source, could it be running well? And, could you advice about copying drivers?

I have finally gotten one version of windows 2003 r2 x64 installed as a guest. The bad news is no network. The network tab says it''s a realtek 8139 when I know it is a intel. I tried downloading the intel drivers and they wont install says it''s the wrong hard ware. Is this common that it uses a 8139 as a generic network card? Also the network card shows The

Hello to all, Its been requested that I stifle the /lib/tls warning given even with xen-friendly libc6 because init was compiled otherwise. I got the deb sources for sysvinit from Ubuntu, which build just fine. The last time I tried this I ended up breaking signals to init (even though /dev/initctl was there and 666) and could not reboot. So for a new server, I''m going to : Base

Hello, Problem: Debian(linux-image-xen-686) Dom0 does not boot from LSI MegaRaid I''m sorry, because I don''t know if I''m at the right place to ask for a solution for my problem, because it might be Debian related. Nethertheless I try: Xen Kernel are in Debian Unstable for a month or so. I''m running an Etch (testing) machine here and I wanted to try out

Hello everyone: I am currently install xen 3.4.2 on centOS 5.5 with linux kernel version 2.6.18.8.

When i use the command mkinitrd (without any options) the i''ve got some errors: # mkinitrd Root device: /dev/sda3 (mounted on / as reiserfs) Module list: ata_piix mptbase mptscsih qla2300 reiserfs Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11.12-xen0 Initrd image: /boot/initrd-2.6.11.12-xen0 Shared

Hi How do I make an initrd for xen. I''m trying to boot rhel3 in fc4, and it keeps getting stuck at Freeing unused kernel memory. I''ve created the device files, but it still doesn''t boot up. I''m pretty sure that the solution lies in makeing an initrd file. Currently my xenU kernel is 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4xen0. Can someone please tell me how to do this? Many

The following patches add RHEL 6 guest support to virt-v2v. This was actually quite a lot easier than I expected. * [PATCH 1/4] Update virt-v2v.conf for RHEL 6 virtio support * [PATCH 2/4] Check kudzu exists before attempting to disable it * [PATCH 3/4] Use dracut rather than mkinitrd if it's available * [PATCH 4/4] Properly convert RHEL 6 guest console

Hello, I would like to know if initrd is here to stay, now that klibc and initramfs are ready. As the multipath-tools maintainer, I'm facing the choice to 1) put the multipath configuration tool in the initrd * dynamic binary is possible * storage hba drivers as modules loaded * no klibc limitations (no mntent for libsysfs ...) 2) put the multipath configuration tool in the initramfs *

Hello, i will describe my approach 1) I have downloaded Centos5-64bit xen image from jailtime.org 2) I have created own swap image with 512MB file size 3) I have used same as dom0 kernel 2.6.18-53.1.19.el5xen 4) I have mounted my image file and copied /lib/modules/2.6.18-53.1.19.el5xen 5) I have created custom ramdisk for domU with mkinitrd --with=xennet --preload=xenblk

Hi, The latest fedora kernel already has the CONNMARK support. I'd like to use it in my centos 4.2 server. I know it is not as stable as the 2.6.9.x the comes with centos but it is an alternative to using the vanilla kernel. I've managed to rebuild the rpm of the FC4 kernel in my Centos server but when trying to install I get Failed dependencies: mkinitrd >= 4.2.15-1 is

Hi, I noticed some issues with the ssh transport mode where the virt-v2v would fail because of issue with libssh2.
