Xen devel - Dec 2005 - Xm-test problem (wrong permission for rcS)

Hi,

I''m trying xm-test on x86, and found
runtest.sh (sanity check to read /cpu/procinfo on DomU) fails.

It looks like /proc on DomU is empty because 
exec. permission is not set for /etc/init.d/rcS.
So, I corrected the permission bit for rcS and
now xm-test is working correctly.

Best Regards,

Matsumoto

Thanks Matsumoto.  That rcS file has been chmod''d +x in the repository,
but
obviously that''s getting lost somewhere (hg bug, maybe?).  Would you
mind
submitting a patch to the ramdisk-building scripts so that they enforce that
setting when building the ramdisk?  That would mean that even if people copy
xm-test and the permissions get lost, the script would put them back
correctly.  Thank you.

If you don''t want to do this work, I''m sure that Dan Smith or
someone else
will volunteer.

Cheers,

Ewan.
