[Xen-users] What means disk = [ ''file:/share/vm/OVM_EL5U1_X86_HVM_4GB/system.img, hda, w!'', ] in the most recent Xen Wiki for stub domain ?
Xen Wiki for Stub Domain sample shows up syntax :- name = ''OVM_EL5U1_X86_HVM_4GB'' uuid = ''de0edfdc-c6f1-4d2b-a2a3-88c035208c79'' builder = ''hvm'' device_model = ''/usr/lib/xen/bin/stubdom-dm'' kernel = ''/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader'' memory = ''256'' vif = [ ''mac=00:16:3e:6b:66:d7,bridge=xenbr0'', ] disk = [ ''file:/share/vm/OVM_EL5U1_X86_HVM_4GB/system.img,hda,w!'', ] acpi = 1 apic = 1 pae = 1 vcpus = 1 sdl = 0 vnc = 1 vnclisten = ''192.168.1.199'' on_crash = ''restart'' on_reboot = ''restart'' My question :- Is sign "w!" something new,been missed in Release Notes, or it''s a typo ? Following release notes i was able to install F8,F9,openSUSE 11,Solaris 10(05/08) in stub domain (all 64-bit Linux stub DomUs at Xen 3.3 CentOS 5.2 Dom0). However, attempts to install CentOS 5.2(1) hangs at the third installer''s page "Keyboard layout selection". I would be able just try "w!" in about a day or so. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

If you''re using a filesystem/blockdevice that can handle it! _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
