RE: [Xen-users] Problem Installing a Linux Distribution.
Hello, Are you running in a paravirtualized environment? Also have you tried a net install to avoid having to switch CDs?

There have been many HowTos written on how to switch cds during an install, centering around the use of ''xm block-detach/block-attach'', but I''ve never gotten that to work reliably. Its better to use a dvd, a dvd.iso file, or a network install (if you have broadband). _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
