[Xen-users] Trying to run centos4.3 on xen under debian unstable
hi,
I followed http://mark.foster.cc/wiki/index.php/Centos-4_on_Xen and
populated the image with centos'' packages downloaded from the net.
my config file in /etc/xen is centos, so /etc/xen/centos contains:
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-xenU"
memory = 96
name = "centos"
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = [
''file:/home/kpanic/xen-images/centos.img,sdb1,w'',''file:/home/kpanic/xen-images/centos-swap.img,sdb1,w''
]
# or if you use LVM
# disk = [
''phy:/dev/vg01/vol01,sdb1,w'',''phy:/dev/vg01/vol02,sdb2,w''
]
root = "/dev/sdb1 ro"
but when I try to:
# xm create -c centos
I obtain:
Using config file "/etc/xen/centos".
Error: (22, ''Invalid argument'')
here is the paste of /var/log/xend.log:

Re: [Xen-users] Trying to run centos4.3 on xen under debian unstable
Quick guess - you need an initrd. CentOS uses a device filesystem. Try adding something like: ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.11.12-xenU.img" to your configuration file.

Hi Marco. >disk = [ ''file:/home/kpanic/xen-images/centos.img,sdb1,w'',''file:/home/kpanic/xen-images/centos-swap.img,sdb1,w'' ] It looks like both the centos.img and the centos-swap.img are being exported as sdb1.
