similar to: HVM Linux DomU doesn''t start

Hey, guys. I have a problem when installing syslinux 4.06, and I'd be grateful if someone could tell me how to solve the problem. My task - to install the bootloader on the virtual machine image. The image contains the MBR and the only partition with the file system ext4. The file system contains all the files for the guest OS. To install bootloader into the image of the guest OS, I use the

Hi! I recently tried to mount a filesystem in RAID1 mode using loopback devices. I followed the instructions at [1]. Here''s exactly what I''ve done: $ dd if=/dev/zero of=raid1_0.img bs=1M count=500 $ dd if=/dev/zero of=raid1_1.img bs=1M count=500 $ mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 -d raid1 raid1_0.img raid1_1.img $ losetup /dev/loop0 raid1_0.img $ losetup /dev/loop1 raid1_1.img $ mount -t

Hi all. I''ve got a domU that exists in a sparse file image, I''d like to now use this on a physical partition (loopback performance issues). Is there an a easy way to do this ?

Hello all Xen devels, I''m writing howto''s in brazilian portuguese language about Xen-3.3.0 stubdom, pv-grub and others configurations. Following what is written in xen-3.3.0/stubdom/README, I tried start a HVM but without success. When I start the virtual machine calling ''xm create hvmtest'' command, in a few seconds the virtual machine is dead (see

How do I mount a partition that is in an image file? I have a file called centos.img that has 3 partitions in the file. I need to copy data to the third partition on that image file. I have seen things about a loop back device (which is fine) but then it talked about an offset parameter and I dont know what that is or more importantly what number to use. I hope I'm on the right track. How

Continuing on with my earlier post . . . after looking through code of JBD, is the following perhaps the difference in why the md5 values differ; When a journalled filesystem that uses jbd is mounted the journal b_count is incremented by one? *EVEN* if the volume was mounted read only, this b_count is still increased by one? curious as ever! lt __________________________________ Do you

Hi everyone, Just trying to find a definitive answer on a problem I have been trying to address for a few months now. I've sifted through the list archives and the closest thing I could find was something about credential caching and it didn't seem to work. What we're trying to do seems simple / normal / common enough that I'm surprised it doesn't just work. We have

I am trying to install CentOS from an ISO image file but the installer does not see a CD-ROM drive. The VNC viewer works but the CentOS installer indicates "Unable to find any devices of the type needed for this installation type." Then it prompts with "[Select driver] [Use a driver disk] [Back]". I have tried several variations of the "disk" paramater, all

Hello Mailing List! A quick question. Has anyone gotten a resize (in my case grown) a Xen DomU disk image? Here is the procedure I have followed: 1. Install a DomU using virt-install Customize xvda to be all one partition ext3 2. On Dom0: dd if=/dev/zero bs=1G count=1 >> <my_disk_image> ll -h (Image is now 1GB larger) xm create <DomU> On DomU: df -h (Size has not

Hallo, linux-btrfs, First I create an array of 2 disks with mkfs.btrfs -d raid0 -m raid1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdd1 and mount it at /srv/MM. Then I fill it with about 1,6 TByte. And then I add /dev/sde1 via btrfs device add /dev/sde1 /srv/MM btrfs filesystem balance /srv/MM (it run about 20 hours) Then I work on it, copy some new files, delete some old files - all works well. Only df

Here's the problem. We perform full tar backups of our CentOS 4/5 machines in real-time at regular intervals. And when a disaster happens, we are able to restore those backups onto virgin filesystems, make the /dev/null, /dev/zero and /dev/console devices .. and boot the machine. This has worked well on standalone systems, and also on Xen 3.0.3 guests on CentOS 4.4 machines, where each guest
