Is this the correct kernel? the ".1" extension seems to indicate a
second download with wget. Perhaps it''s corrupted. Make sure
it''s the
correct kernel.

Also checkout a recent thread on this list about installing F11 on
Centos with virt-install.

Xen only supports PAE PV kernels on 32bit.

RE: [Xen-users] cannot boot PV guest

Try this.

Make the line that reads

vif = [ ''bridge=eth0'' ]

read as follows

vif = [ '''' ]

Get rid of the DHCP line for now.

This line should be:

Yeah, dhcp line can cause problems with PV guests, especially if using
pygrub.

RE: [Xen-users] cannot boot PV guest

name="FC11-G1S2"
memory=500
vif = [ '''' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = [''phy:/dev/sda3,sda3,w’]
kernel = "/etc/xen/vm/vmlinuz"
ramdisk = "/etc/xen/vm/initrd.img"
vcpus=1
on_reboot = ''restart''
on_crash = ''restart''

I tried this but the problem is with line 5 the highlighted one. how to check
that which disk should be specified in my case?
