Xen users - Jul 2006 - Issue installing guest domain using fedora core 5

Hi,
I''m using a Dell 360 workstation with 1 Gig of Ram.

I have installed successfully the Domain_0 kernel 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5xen0,
upgraded all packages and restarted the box with this new kernel.

when I run xm list, it shows this domain running happily.

I have built a guest OS install tree, with the new guest Domain_u kernel
image, appropriate for this latest kernel. This tree exists on a separate
server, and not on the intended xen server.

I then type the following:

/usr/sbin/xenguest-install.py
What is the name of your virtual machine? nick
 How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256
 What would you like to use as the disk (path)? /vmmachines/nick
 How large would you like the disk to be (in gigabytes)? 5
 What is the install location? http://xxx.xxx.8.193:8000

I have reduced the amount of memory used by Domain_0 to allow for this
256meg Guest.

I get this error message after typing in the networking details during the
install.

loader received SIGSEGV!.  Backtrace:

Does anyone have any suggestions on this one?

Thanks in advance

Nick

This is a fedora-specific script, and you will get better support for
it''s bugs and features on the fedora-xen mailing list.
