Hi All, I am trying to setup the CentOS DomU under Dom0. Welcome to CentOS +-----------------+ HTTP Setup +------------------+ | | | Please enter the following information: | | | | o the name or IP number of your Web server | | o the directory on that server containing | | CentOS for your architecture | | | | Web site name: mirror.centos.org_______ | | CentOS directory: /centos/5/os/x86_64_____ | | | | +----+ +------+ | | | OK | | Back | | | +----+ +------+ | | | | | +-------------------------------------------------+ +-------------+ Error +-------------+ | | | Unable to retrieve | | http://mirror.centos.org//centos | | /5/os/x86_64/images/stage2.img. | | | | +----+ | | | OK | | | +----+ | | | | | +-----------------------------------+ System is able to download the stuff and the installation stops right there. I checked the URL and there seems to be no problem. I also made sure it is 64 bit xen using - xm info. Please let me know if something is wrong. Also let me know if I can find good logs.

I tried following stuff. virt-install -x "ip=188.138.19.80 gateway=188.138.19.1 subnet=255.255.255.128" This is because my dedicated server is in the data centre. *They also have some network limitation. Yes, we do restrict each switch port to one MAC address each. To not do so results in insanity inside the network. Maybe. If configured properly, the Linux kernel can be made to advertise only one MAC address (arp flux is really a pain to deal with in layer 2).* Does this mean that I should be using routed configuration instead of bridged configuration? Any pointers or help will be appreciated!

Great thanks Stefano. I tried bridged, routed and NATted using the xend-config.sxp. It doesn''t change it''s message - Unable to retrieve | | http://mirror.centos.org//centos | | /5/os/x86_64/images/stage2.img. I am sure there is something wrong with this one:- +--------------+ Manual TCP/IP Configuration +---------------+ | | | Enter the IPv4 and/or the IPv6 address and prefix | | (address / prefix). For IPv4, the dotted-quad netmask | | or the CIDR-style prefix are acceptable.

Should this work? What is the ideal way of assign a domain a static IP Address? Thanks and regards Rajan Chandi On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at 5:36 AM, Stefano Zanella <zanella.stefano@gmail.com>wrote:> Ok.
