I would have sworn that someone on the list had a way to Xenify a stock RH kernel but I was not able to dig it up on the archives. If this does not exist I am sure it would be a nice addition to Xen to be able to patch and build some kernels that are compatable with some of the popular distributions. -- Alvin Starr || voice: (416)585-9971 Interlink Connectivity ||

hello, I wonder where the Xen''s name came from? I looked at the Xen FAQ, and there is no information. That should be there, right ;-) Merry Christmas to everyone on the list ;-) AQ ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

I was playing with suspending and resuming Xen domains. Suspend and restore seems to work. However, when I reconnected with ''xm console'', I got the following error message on screen. Should I be concerned? [root@ROUGE xen]# xm console FedoraCore2 ************ REMOTE CONSOLE: CTRL-] TO QUIT ******** xen_blk: Unexpected blkif status disconnected in state connected blkfront:

Hi, When a domain shuts down it seems to stay visible in the output of xm list (see below) even if I do an ''xm destroy''. Has something changed (they used to disappear just fine for me)?

Hello, I can''t seem to get the network going.

Hi, I am trying to replace uml with xen, but I cant get the unpreviliged Domains booting.. Ive tested a cuple of filesystems in a file (ext3 or xfs formatted) and Ive also tried the ttylinux-xen image. But I always get this error: VFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(3,1) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to

hello, I''m booting xen on iTuner over serial console. It seems to me that it is bug that unless I explictly specify "console=com1" I get unhelpfull message "Unknown Interrupt" and halt (infinite loop). sh-2.05b# /sbin/kexec -e Starting new kernel Unknown interrupt adding "console=com1" fixes this problem for me so I doubt it I''m going to look

Hi, I''m getting the following oops on startup, and I''m not quite sure why. It looks nasty though, with an invalid page being mapped into a process, and a strange looking EIP ... do_wp_page: bogus page at address 00000449 VM: killing process kmodule Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000449 printing eip: 00001eca *pde = ma 0d183067 pa

On my lex mainboard with a Via C3 cpu, xen 2.0(.1) reboots (nearly) immediately without any outputs. The same setup/version boots without problems on a via epia M board with a Via C3-2 cpu (Nehemia), having a rather different chipset. Starting with option noreboot, nobiostables doesn''t change anything visible. Is this a known problem? Or just a knowingly unsupported chipset? Have you

Dear list, I''m trying to get Xen working on a P3-600E with 320 MB RAM. (256+64) It has suse linux 9.1 installed on it, and I tried to get xen running with both the binary download from the xen pages and the suse xen packages mentioned on this list some days ago. Both ''install packages/kernels'' lead to the same error: (XEN) Not enough memory for DOM0 memory

Is there a way to discovery how much free memory I still have to use in a new domain? Another question is about cpu usage. I guess that xen scheduler allocate a fixed time slice for all virtual machines and does not make any idea if the virtual machine is using or not using all this time, right? How I can identify if CPU is the bottleneck? Thanks! -- Flávio Bruno Leitner

Hi, Some questions here : 1. Is there a way to compile kernel 2.6.10 or 2.6.9-mm1 with xen 2.0? I tried both (with mkbuildtree from linux-2.6.9-xen-sparse), and both failed (on different places). My primary goal is to use reiser4 on both xen-0 and xen-U kernel, so I''m more interested in -mm kernel. 2. If I use kernel 2.4.27 (xen-U), top doesn''t show correct cpu usage

I am a bit puzzled on how the block device mapping works for Xen guests. Or particularily the fact on how the device shows on the guest side. When configuring the domain, one can specify the device name the partition should appear with inside the guest. And if that device does not exist on the host side, xend complains. A workaround for this was to specify the device with explicit minor and major

As a heads up to everyone, VMware requires you to take special precautions when trying to put a virtual nic into promiscuous mode, which is required for Xen networking to work. I spent a fair amount of time diagnosing Xen network problems when it wasn''t Xen at all. As I was just beginning to learn Xen, I was convinced it was something I was doing wrong, when it wasn''t at

Hi all, I test from 2 month now the xen project and i reach today a custom config with xen wich is stable and so much confortable. Just a little problem with a GUI view for the XenU domains: as I read some message from archive devel-xen that "startx" from a domain doesn''t work, I try to work with Dom0: 1. startx from Dom0 2. open xterm 3. command: xhost + 4. command: ssh

whew. You guys did a lot of nice stuff for 2.0 so I''m glad to be caught up. Also, no question, things run faster. I don''t know how you did it but I like it. ron ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

This is really a xen newbie question, to which the answer might be obvious if I only knew more of xen. I wonder if there would be a simple way to set up a communication channel between two domains - or specifically getting domain0 separate communication channels to all the other domains separately. Something akin to a UNIX-domain socket would be marvelous. Network interface is a bit too much
