In case I have to manage with partitions, the must is that you can do it only if it is the last partition, and you

I am trying to write a script to handle setup of domains using virtual block devices for their root FS and have been unable to get the virtual devices to work with any sort of consistency. This is using xen-1.1.bk on Redhat 7.3 (I had to rebuild all the tool binaries to run on 7.3). Anyway, I would first like to make sure I am using the vd/vbd stuff correctly. Here is an example of the problem I

Dear Xen users! In case you were struggling with recent version of th gplpv drivers, I''ve possibly found an LVM related bug in it, and reported to James Harper. Thats''s the point: I''ve tested the mentioned version of your driver on top of 32bit xen-3.2.1 32bit xen-3.3.0 and 64bit xen xen-3.3.0 hypervisors, dom0 was always an appropriate version of a 32bit PAE kernel,

Hi, I modified my kickstart to do some custom partioning and formating in a pre-install script. I am trying to align the partitions on the RAID stripe (and format with a correct stride). But, sfdisk complains that it does not start/end on a cylinder boundary (used -L option to limit complaining). Since the cylinder size is not a multiple of the stripe size, I cannot align on both. I tried to

I have been trying to track down information on building HD boot images for ISOLINUX and MEMDISK, and so far, haven't had a whole lot of luck. I've found a number of sources describing the process of setting up ISOLINUX and MEMDISK, and how to configure the boot CD to boot various OS's. I've also read through Bart Lagerweij's BootCD/ModBoot pages, and Mikhail

I''ve installed a FC5 domU under RHEL5-beta2 dom0 with virt-manager. As the disk for domU I used: phy:/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02,xvda,w In the domU I have partitions: /dev/xvda1 on / type ext3 (rw) /dev/xvda2 on /var type ext3 (rw) How do I access these partitions from dom0? For example if I take an LVM snapshot of LogVol02, how do I mount the / partition of the domU installed on

Hi, it was brought to my attention that sfdisk has lost the ability to deal with C/H/S addressing as of util-linux 2.26, so the -C ,-H, -S command line parameters are no longer supported.

Hi All, I have several Xen virtual machines within logical volumes using LVM2. I did not use disk images for performance reasons. Conventionally, if I want to clone my virtual machines, I have to dd the LV to an image file. But this consumes a lot of time and harddisk space. So, instead of doing that, I want to use losetup and kpartx with my logical volumes, which contain operating systems of

Back in January there was a mail thread on this subject ( http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2005-01/msg00659.html ), however I see that blkfront still does not include ioctl support for disk geometry. So, any application that uses "sfdisk -g" to get the geometry of a partition, or disk, will fail when run in DomU. Is this a deliberate omission? Nick Logan

Dear all, I'm working on a shell script which is producing a bootable image file. It contains a populated MBR and a single file system (ext4) which again contains a debootstrabed debian stable distribution. Unfortunately, I'm experiencing problems with the bootability of the produced image. When selecting the installed system at the boot prompt, Syslinux responds with something like
