similar to: Cannot see CD or DVD drives from working WinXP guest on Fedora 7

This was working before the last "yum update" which I had not done in a couple of months(yeah I know I''m bad). I have a virtual WinXP instance running on a Linux box. They share the dvd drive with the following disk command in the .hvm file: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/VG_Guests/WinXP-001,ioemu:hda,w'', ''file:/opt/xen_stuff/winxp.iso,hdc:cdrom,w'',

I wrote a bunch of files to a backup DVD about two months ago and now neither of my drives will read it. I get mount errors from "not a directory" to something like "unrecognized file system type" and so on, usually after a really long wait and a notice about how the drive is write-protected (duh). Here's what happened most recently: # mount /dev/hdc /mnt mount: block

I have couple question about using Xen in the "real" world. My test box is a Dell Optiplex 745 with a Core 2 processor and 4 G of RAM. I am using 64 bit Centos 5 with Xen 3.03. Right now I have it set up so Dom0 is my working domain and I add other DomU for whatever tests i need to do. From what I''ve read here, this is not the best way to do things. So my first question is,

Hi, I run an Ubuntu Breezy Dom0 under Xen 3.0.1 (official Xen 2.6.12.6 kernels from xen-3.0.1-install.tgz). In the machine i''ve got 2 IDE ATA discs, hda and hdc. The Dom0 runs on hda1 (a big / partition), hda2 is swap. hdc is totally unused (an empty disc, exactly the same model that hda). 8 to 10 domU run from .img files located in /vserver without problems (unmodified kernel

I've installed Wine 1.3.28 on Ubuntu 11.04. I've been having some odd problems that I can't seem to get around. My optical disk drives aren't visible when I try to use applications like DVD Shrink, I can't seem to detect them. When I try to install some apps like Amazon Kindle and WoW, they will install, but just not open. When I run Startcraft II, it'll play, but it

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 4.0.0-1 Severity: normal This is an offshoot of Bug#588888, but is really a separate issue. It appears that with hvmloader, the disk device names presented to the vm must by from a specific set that hvmloader knows how to emulate. Names like hd[a-c] and sd[a-c] work, but sr0 does not. While this makes sense, when you think about what hvmloader is doing, it is

Hello, I want to install CentOS 4.4 on a Compaq Proliant DL 360. The installation fails just after booting on the first CD. Linux tries to autodetect hardware and fails with the CDROM.

hi all What´s the best way to have my DVD-R/RW burner working in a DomU? Just ''phy:hdc,hdc,w'' would do it? or there´s some other way? thanks in advance, Christian Lyra _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Mount CD ROM iso during kickstart postinstall CentOS 5.2 i386 I''m doing a xen virtual machine installation from a DVD iso image with a kickstart file to set network and run scripts and such in the postinstall section. During the installation the DVD iso is listed as device /tmp/cdrom and mounted on /mnt/source. Once the installation is done and the post install starts the /tmp/cdrom

I am new to Wine and really struggling. I'm trying to get DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter running on my Kubuntu 5.04. My system is current. I have a 2.8Mhz machine with 1Gb memory and lots of space on my 160Gb hard drive. I have a Plextor DVD+-RW and an HP CD-RW. They are /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd respectively. Here is my /fstab file: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file

Hi all, I have trouble with making the symbolic link to the corresponding device node. I have typed sudo In ~/.wine/dosdevices lrwxrwxrwx 1 username d: -> /mnt/cdrom but it gives me this error : prawira@ubuntu:~/Warcraft III$ ln ~/.wine/dosdevices lrwxrwxrwx 1 d: -> /mnt/cdrom bash: /mnt/cdrom: Permission denied prawira@ubuntu:~/Warcraft III$ ln ~/.wine/dosdevices lrwxrwxrwx 1 d:: ->

Sorry, I know this is not really libvirt related, but I'm searching for a solution sind about an hour and cannot find anything that helps me ... Ok, I used to install a standard debian in a kvm instance, and removed the virtual cd-rom after installation.

Hi, Bit late to join in the discussion but I've just read through the CD archiving discussion and was particular interested in Dax's method, described here (also included below): http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/flac/2006-September/000611.html So far I've just been flac-ing my CDs to individual one-flac-per-track files, however it appears I've been missing some of the other bits

hello, I am using 2.6.21, lguest-2.6.21-307.patch.gz and an image from http://uml.nagafix.co.uk/Fedora7/Fedora7-x86-root_fs.bz2 the console hangs, is this expected or caused by the image? I can still ssh to it or if I boot in single user mode the console is available but running init3 and it's hung. also is it possible to get the last gz patch released for 2.6.21?

I have loaded FC6 with the virtualizations kernel, and I am attempting to load WinXP. I searched all the logs and docs and configured what I think is correct based on these. When I do an xm create dfw11286lv1.hvm, I get the following messages: Using config file "dfw11286lv1.hvm". Started domain dfw1128glv1 However, I never get a window with the installer. Also, when I open the

Jason, I found that I had to manually edit the VM config file to add the cdrom in the Disk section. For example I added: Disk = [ "file:/location/disk.img,had,w" , "file:/location/en_ws_2003_ent_sp2_vl.is,hdb:cdrom,r"] Where /location is the directory you have the ISO image stored. It then is able to boot and mount the CD-ROM on the 2nd boot. Good luck, -Peter Subject:
