Hello I''m trying Xen under qemu. It works good. I have question: 1. I always need to start domU twice: root@darkstar:~# xm create zipslack Using config file "/etc/xen/zipslack". Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working root@darkstar:~# xm create zipslack Using config file "/etc/xen/zipslack". Started domain zipslack root@darkstar:~# Why it doesn''t work the first time? 2. network reliability. With qemu, I use a -redir tcp:2222::22 in order to use ssh. With dom0 it''s OK. As soon as I start domU it''s not working anymore. Can I avoid that? 3. precompiled kernel Kernels given in the website don''t seems to have modules. I would need some to do nfs, reading iso9660 files and so on. Are another kernels given (with all modules) or have I to recompile one? the doc isn''t quite clear with that http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/readmes/user/user.html#S ECTION02140000000000000000 says that after compilation you have 2 kernels. (what about modules?) 4. cdrom: is it possible to use the cdrom from domU? I can''t manage to make it run? I could share it by domO and nfs, and mount it under domU, but nfs doesn''t work (see 3.) thanks Lire vos emails en vacances ?

If you like connect to ssh in DomU your DomU needs a network connection, and with its IP, you establish the connection to port 22. 4. cdrom: is it possible to use the cdrom from domU?

In your DomU configuration, you need to pass the device disk = [ ''phy:/dev/sdc1,sda1,w'', ''phy:/cdrom,hda,rw'' ] With this line in DomU configuration, /cdrom is hda in DomU. You need mount /cdrom en Dom0 and it will be able to accede to /cdrom. You can have access to the CDROM directly if DomU controls the device. You see the official documentation about its: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/readmes/user/user.html#SECTION03230000000000000000 -Javier- _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
