similar to: Xen 4.0 - No console prompt after booting domU but functional SSH

I''m running Xen 3.2 on Debian 5.0 (Lenny) and am having trouble booting up a Debian Etch DomU. It hangs at the end when it says "Starting periodic command scheduler: cron." It''s just completely frozen. At one point I set it sit for a few hours and got back into the console and it said something about "time went backwards" but I used the

Hi list, I am running a virtualized server. Dom0 uses Xen 3.2.1 with Debian Etch and a custom kernel 2.6.21 created by my webhosting company. I install my domU using debootstrap for a Debian Etch with 2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 kernel. Everything works well except the fact that once the VM is started I cannot "xm console" into it. It only works while it is booting and while it is shutting

But when i start a domU with "xm create host.example.tld.cfg -c" to login to console from domU it hangs after the message

Hi, I have already set up a VM that can access the network using the NAT mode. The problem I have is that I''d like to create another VM that also has access to the network. The problem I get is that when a VM is started, the other one will refuse to start. Actually it starts, but when I want to "xm console" into it I get the following error message: "xenconsole: Could not

Hello everybody! My server with Ubuntu Hardy Heron x64 with Xen 3.2 hangs on when booting at "Starting local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)". My /etc/rc.local is default and I can''t find out why it stops there. It''s possible to SSH to the server and everything works fine. I just can''t do anything from the physical server. I''ve googled but nothing have

Hello everyone, I''m quite a newbie with Xen and I''m currently having an issue. I run Xen 4 on Debian Squeeze x64 and I''m trying to build an OpenFiler DomU from the Xen domU filesystem tarbal they provide (See http://www.openfiler.com/community/download/).

I just installed xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64 2.6.26-7 on a freshly installed Debian Lenny AMD64 system, and when I create a Debian Lenny DomU with xen-tools I cannot attach to a console nor log in with SSH. When running # xm create -c test.cfg the system starts booting, but it seems to "freeze" after the kernel has booted. Googling a bit, shows that I seem to have the problem

Hi, I''m using Debian 5 (lenny) with Xen 3.2-1. When I try to start a Linux guest (installed with debootstrap like this <http://www.option-c.com/xwiki/Create_a_Debian_VM_with_debootstrap>), the VM hangs right after starting crond.

Hi All, I was hoping to pick someone''s brain about the best way of moving a Xen disk image (which has LVM''s inside of it) to a new block-device?  I have the target DRBD device ready but unsure what''s the best &amp; safest way to do it. I was actually tempted to mount the Xen disk image in a dom0, and make it visible via loop devices and promote that DRBD node for

Hello, I have a little trouble when entering into a domU console (xm console mydomU) : i can''t use the CTRL-C sequence to stop a script/command (like a continuous ping for example) Is there any parameter / tip for that ?

Hi, I've tried to setup a new DomU on Lenny and I'm a little bit confused on which device names I should use for disks and console in the various DomU-kernels? Is it correct that: 2.6.18-xen-kernel from Etch start with no "extra" tty1 in /etc/inittab /dev/sd for disks 2.6.26-xen-kernel from Lenny: start with no "extra" hvc0 in /etc/inittab /dev/xvd for disks
