[Xen-users] rtc: IRQ 8 is not free ; i8042.c: No controller found.
Hi * My host domain is running Scientific Linux 5.1 i386 (SL51), kernel 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5xen on a Quad Xeon box. SL51 installs Xen hypervisor v.3.0.3, and was already up and running when the machine passed to my hands. [root@xxxx ~]# uname -a Linux xxxx.xxxx.xx.xx 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5xen #1 SMP Wed Nov 12 07:30:18 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [root@xxxx ~]# xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 3024 8 r----- 3445.9 A LVM partition was created, as well as a volume group (enmr) and a logical volume.

Neverthess, I''m able to enter domain goldenClient_sl47_x86_noX using a console started from vrit-manager. I''m able to yum update the new domain, though I have other problems with the network configuration. Anyway, one problem at a time. Searched the mailing list and it seems that several people had the same problem when trying to access a domain using "xm console" command. But, I just cannot find out a solution for this. Thank you guys. Cheers, Nuno P.S. I know that both Xen and virt-manager versions are a bit old, but these are the packages on the official repositories. =============================================Nuno Ricardo Santos Loureiro da Silva Ferreira NMR Spectroscopy Research Group Bijvoet Center for Biomolecular Research Utrecht University Bloembergen gebouw Padualaan 8, 3584 CH Utrecht The Netherlands P: +31.(0)30.253 9932 F: +31.(0)30.253 2652 E: n.l.ferreira@uu.nl W: http://nmr.chem.uu.nl ============================================= _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
