Hi all, have anyone get success running domU fc4 guest on rhel5 xen domO ? I always get this error [root@mis-s155 xen]# xm create -c fc4guest Using config file "./fc4guest". Error: (22, ''Invalid argument'') [root@mis-s155 xen]# config. kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.13-1.1532_FC4xenU" memory = 512 name = "fc4guest" disk = [ ''tap:aio:/xenvm/fc4xen.img,sda,w'' ] root = "/dev/sda1 ro" Thank''s Budiono _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Sounds like it could be a mismatch between PAE and non-PAE. So, just to check, are, if you are using a PAE enabled hypervisor, is the domU kernel PAE enabled as well, and vice-versa?

Everytime I see people with that error, I always see an accompanying reply back saying your tool set differs from the version of Xen. I haven''t personally experienced this problem but I''d verify everything is at the same level. Did you update the Xen on RHEL 5 on your own?

This does indeed sound like a PAE / non-PAE mismatch. Any clues in the /var/log/xen/xend.log file? RHEL5 and recent Fedora versions support only PAE. PAE may not have been supported at the time of FC4''s release. You could check if there''s a PAE-enabled Xen kernel for FC4 by doing a yum search, but I wouldn''t hold my breath. In this case, the most straightforward way to run FC4 would probably be to use HVM. You could still probably install paravirt drivers in order to improve performance. Personally, I wish there was a RedHat non-PAE Xen available; as it is I have to build my own for compatibility with existing guests (and in the case of my laptop, I have to build non-PAE Xen in order to run at all!). Hope that helps you somewhat.

How to check if my system PAE enable? If so how to disable PAE in kernel configuration, I search to google about disable PAE, somebody said by disable high-memory support in kernel configuration, but I didn''t found it. My current system is RHEL 5 kernel-2.6.18-8el5.xen And this an error message in /var/log/xen/xend-debug.log when running "xm create -c fc4guest" ERROR: Kernel not a Xen-compatible Elf image.
