The installer works out that its running in a Xen PV environment and works out what to do. The only thing special I did was loopback-mount the iso image so I could see the contents from a web server. jch _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Re: [Xen-users] fedora as domu on ubuntu gutsy host
Sorry, for stupid question. Does virt-install work at Ubuntu Gutsy now ? 2-3 months ago i filed bug (with no feeds) to Ubuntu launchpad. --- On Fri, 8/22/08, John Haxby <john.haxby@oracle.com> wrote: From: John Haxby <john.haxby@oracle.com> Subject: Re: [Xen-users] fedora as domu on ubuntu gutsy host To: "bharath venkatesh" <bharathv6.project@gmail.com> Cc: xen-users@lists.xensource.com Date: Friday, August 22, 2008, 8:37 AM bharath venkatesh wrote:> I have been successful in setting up debian etch as > domu on my ubuntu gutsy dom0 after a lot of pain with google > searching and fixing the problems ... now i want to setup fedora as > domU .... > i have issues with it-- > for setting up debian etch as domu i used mirror = > http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ > but for fedora which mirror should i use ... in case i get a iso image > how to use the iso image to install it ..For Fedora 8 and Fedora 9 I just installed it.

I did the installation using virt-install on Oracle VM (essentially RHEL5 or CentOS5 for this purpose). I loopback-mounted the iso on a web server and used something like this: virt-install --location=http://my.server.com/f9 which means that I did something like this mount -o loop fedora9.iso /var/www/html/f9 on my web server. I generally check that I can see the files under that URL before I do the installation to make sure I haven''t messed up. jch _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
