Hi List, I am trying to get the xen-unstablw working. Followings is what I have done so far. 1. I got the tarball from the xen website. 2. make world - successful 3. make install - successful 4. make install-twisted - successful 5. xend start - failed with the following error message [root@lmicro1 xeno-unstable]# xend start ERROR: Could not obtain handle on privileged command interface (2 = No such file or directory) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/xend", line 118, in ? sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/sbin/xend", line 96, in main from xen.xend.server import SrvDaemon File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/xen/xend/server/SrvDaemon.py", line 38, in ? import channel File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/xen/xend/server/channel.py", line 4, in ? xc = xen.lowlevel.xc.new() xen.lowlevel.xc.error: (2, ''No such file or directory'') I am new to xen as well as to python. And don''t really understand what is happening here. I couldn''t find anything like this on the mailings list archive. BTW I am doing this on RH 9 distribution. What is going wrong here? How can get over the above error? Thanks in Advance, Nitin ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.

What does ''uname -a'' say? You should see kernel version 2.6.8.1-xen0. If it''s ''xenU'', or not a Xen kernel at all, then you need to reboot into your -xen0 kernel. -- Keir> Hi List, > > I am trying to get the xen-unstablw working.

Thanks Ian. One more questions, What is the difference in xeno-unstable.bk and xen-2.0.bk ?

We''re currently undergoing a feature freeze in the unstable tree, so the 2.0 tree is typically just a slightly time-delayed version of the unstable tree. We typically test stuff in the unstable tree for a couple of days then push it out to 2.0 if there are no problems reported. After the official 2.0 release you can expect them to diverge again, as the unstable tree undergoes changes for SMP guests and a couple of other major projects we have planned.
