[Xen-users] Attempt of virt-install at Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop Dom0
Original Dom0 setup had been done per Todd Deshane''s
instruction:-
http://deshantm.livejournal.com/29959.html
Functionality of SNV89 PV and HVM DomUs tested fine as well as F8 and WinXP HVM
guests. Once again, all done as advised at
http://deshantm.livejournal.com/29959.html
Next i attempted to follow :-
https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/libvirt.html
# apt-get install kvm libvirt-bin
# adduser $USERNAME libvirtd
Relogin
# apt-get install python-virtinst
No errors reported during installs. However , i''ve noticed references
for 7.10
repositories during download.
Looks like a bug:-
root@boris-desktop:~# virt-install
Would you like a fully virtualized guest (yes or no)?
This will allow you to run unmodified operating systems. yes
What is the name of your virtual machine? hvm01
How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 1024
What would you like to use as the disk (file path)? /etc/xen/images/snv.img
You are going to overwrite file ''/etc/xen/images/snv.img''!
Do you really want to use the file (yes or no)? yes
Floating point exception
root@boris-desktop:~# virt-install

Try to losetup image file:-

/dev/loop0: [080b]:1566802 (/etc/xen/images/snv.img)
root@boris-desktop:~# virt-install

Thanks.

I don''t think there was a lot of testing done with xen and libvirt. I am pretty sure that the Ubuntu guys focused more on KVM. I noticed that even virt-manager wasn''t setup to connect to the Xen dom0 out of the box. Could you please file the bug on Ubuntu''s launchpad. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu I am uncertain whether it is libvirt or virt-install that is out of sync with Xen.
