similar to: ext4 support on pvgrub

Hi, Having a problem getting a domu to boot correctly. When I enter xl create guest it boots straight into grubdom. If I enter the config location in grubdom t boots as expected. The location of the grub.cfg is the same in my domu config as what in entering but just will not work. Any ideas? Ian .

Thank Zhigang Wang for your response. I have test pvgrub with this config file: #pv-config kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/pv-grub-x86_32.gz" extra = "(hd0,5)/boot/grub/menu.lst" memory = 512 name = "ExampleDomain" disk = [ ''file:/var/lib/xen/images/opensuse11-1/disk0,xvda,w'' ] vif = [ "bridge=eth0" ] root = "/dev/sda5 ro" start

After hours of googling and not really finding a definitive solution to my problem, I''m a little stuck and would really appreciate some help from others. I have a CentOS 5.4 x86-64 server running Xen 3.3 from the gitco repos as dom0. On this I have created two logical volumes comprising 8GB for the system disk (xvda) and 1.5GB for swap (xvdb). I ran mkfs.ext3 and mkswap on these to

Add a couple of documentation details about PV-GRUB support - the menu.lst content can be passed as a ramdisk. - virtual partitions are not supported.

I am using Xen 3.3 from source.

Hello, The attached patch adds bzip2 and lzma/xz libs to stubdom for pvgrub. This is the first step of getting the additional compression methods supported in pvgrub. There''s still some Makefile voodoo to sort out before pvgrub actually properly gets linked against these new libs. This patch only adds the libs and makes them build. -- Pasi

Hi folks PV-GRUB built from Xen 3.3.0 is not able to read from devices without a partition table: | grubdom> root (hd0) | Filesystem type unknown, using whole disk Part of the config: | disk = [ "phy:vg0_sledgehammer/servext_root,xvda,w" ] Device: | # file -s /dev/vg0_sledgehammer/servext_root | /dev/vg0_sledgehammer/servext_root: symbolic link to

so it appears that PVGRUB requires that I specifiy (in my domain config file) either the -x86_64 or the -x86_32 version. Does anyone have a clever way I can let my users switch between x86_64 and i386 without giving them access to the domain config file? Preferably, something more secure than PyGRUB? I was considering hacking up PyGRUB so that it only allows the user a choice of

Hello all, I''ve patched pv-grub to allow it to boot a Solaris PV domU using an unmodified menu.lst. The attached patch has been tested with various Solaris versions (Solaris 11 Express, OpenIndiana 151a, OpenSolaris 134, Nexenta Core 3.0.1; all 64-bit). I appreciate your feedback. The patch consists mainly of Oracle''s grub modifications, which add ZFS support and

Hi, When I perform a software RAID 1 or RAID 5 installation on a LAN server with several hard disks, I wonder if GRUB already gets installed on each individual MBR, or if I have to do that manually. On CentOS 5.x and 6.x, this had to be done like this: # grub grub> device (hd0) /dev/sda grub> device (hd1) /dev/sdb grub> root (hd0,0) grub> setup (hd0) grub> root (hd1,0) grub>

Hello, I am still confused: does pyGrub run in dom0 as root? as it says in here: "PyGRUB used to act as a “PV bootloader”: it runs in dom0 as root, opens the PV disk image, reads its GRUB menu.lst, presents a GRUB-like menu to let the user choose a kernel which it copies to the dom0 filesystem, it then closes the disk image and eventually tells the domain builder to use that copy. Such a
