[Xen-users] CDROM Install of unmodified guest in FC6 Test2 host fails ..what to do ?
Hi, I am currently having a setup of hosts FC6 and para virtualized guest FC6 Test2. I am trying to install unmodified guest FC5. I used xenguest-install.py to generate a config file for me. This I edited to get to run unmodified guest but no success yet. When I do "xm create xenbox_G3FC5.hvm" it says "Started xenbox_G3FC5" . I get the message that "Fatal not a bootable disk" in a separate window. This is because the disk does not have OS image/install I tried CdROM option but that is not working either. What are other options for installing unmodified guest OS FC5 for me ? name = "xenbox_G3FC5" builder = "hvm" memory = "256" uuid = "b18f6bb7-ac4c-b8e7-fb59-0097fea1c73e" disk = [ ''file:/root/xenguest3,ioemu:hda,w'' ] vif = [ ''type=ioemu,bridge=xenbr0,mac=00:16:3e:42:ac:69'' ] on_reboot = ''restart'' on_crash = ''restart'' kernel = ''/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader'' device_model = ''/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'' sdl = 1 # use SDL for graphics vncviewer = 0 # spawn vncviewer by default nographic = 0 # don''t use graphics serial=''pty'' # enable serial console Regards Shobha Ranganathan "The significant challenges we face cannot be resolved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them."
