W2K3 and WinXP installs fail under xen-unstable. It boots the CD OK, but sometime during the copying, it will say "Setup cannot copy the file [foo]", where [foo] changes each time. Occasionally the failure mode is instead a BSOD. I can see nothing of interest in the /var/log/xen/* or /var/log/messages. The culprit seems to be the mapcache; the install succeeds in CS 12758 and fails in 12759. I''ve looked through that changeset, and nothing jumps out at first glance as obviously wrong. Any ideas? -George _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

RE: [Xen-devel] Windows install fails with qemu mapcache
Hi George, Sorry for that. We have noticed the issue this Monday, and we''re debugging it. If you could detail your settings, i.e. what kind of host/guest, how much memory you allocate to guest, it would be quite helpful to us. -- Dexuan -----Original Message----- From: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xensource.com [mailto:xen-devel-bounces@lists.xensource.com] On Behalf Of George Dunlap Sent: 2006年12月13日 3:58 To: xen-devel Subject: [Xen-devel] Windows install fails with qemu mapcache W2K3 and WinXP installs fail under xen-unstable.

How much memory do you give the guest? -- Keir On 12/12/06 19:57, "George Dunlap" <dunlapg@gmail.com> wrote:> W2K3 and WinXP installs fail under xen-unstable.
