[Xen-users] Re: How to create a Fedora 11 domU under Debian 5 dom0?
Hi All, I have downloaded a Fedora 11 Xen image from (http://stacklet.com/downloads/images/lister/Fedora); after un-tar in a directory and changing kernel boot and disk location to look for kernel and image; I created an image with file and I can see the output of the command: #xm create /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg "Using config file "/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg". Started domain fedora.11.x86.img" But when I try to login into the newly created VM with # xm console /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg The error message says: Error: Domain ''/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg'' does not exist." Even copying those Xen cf and image files to the location where my other VMs reside doesn''t solve my problem and I get the same error as above. Any ideas how I can login into the newly created VM? Or what step I''m missing? PS: My other xen VMs (based on Debian) are located at some other directory and I can easily login to those. -Jan Muhammad --- On Fri, 19/3/10, Igor S.

[Xen-users] Re: How to Login to Fedora 11 domU under Debian 5 dom0?
Hi,
Sorry for the incomplete command; I do use the # xm console fedora11; but my
problem is that I can''t find the newly created VM; as I''m in
the current directory (/home/xen-testimages) where I have 3 files:
fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg
fedora.11.x86.img
fedora.11.x86.xen3.pygrub.cfg
I run the command (#xm create /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg).
My problem is, I don''t know where the domain fedora11 is being created?
I know when I create similar Debian-image(domU); the location goes to
/home/xen/domains; but in this Fedora(domU) case where I downloaded the image
not created it myself from Xen-create command.
I even created a directory manually on the same location as of Debian domUs but
still I''m getting the Error: Domain
''/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3'' does not
exist."
Thanks for help!

Re: [Xen-users] Re: How to Login to Fedora 11 domU under Debian 5 dom0?
Fixing errors :-
# cat fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-xen-686"
ramdisk ="/boot/initrd-2.6.26-1-xen-686.img ( or whatever has been created
as "initrd" for vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-xen-686 )
memory = 512
name = "fedora.11.x86.img"
vif = [ ''bridge=eth?'' ] ( per "brtcl show")
disk = [''file:/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.img,xvdb,w'']
root = "/dev/sda2 ro"
extra = "fastboot"
# xm create -c fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg
---------------------------------------------------
2. fedora.11.x86.xen3.pygrub.cfg
bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"
memory = 512
name = "fedora.11.x86.img"
vif = [ ''bridge=eth?'' ]
disk [''file:/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.img,xvdb,w'']
root = "/dev/sda2 ro"
extra = "fastboot"
xm create -c fedora.11.x86.xen3.pygrub.cfg
I am wondering would screen output start up ?
One more issue might be raised up :
# root="/dev/sda2 ro"
extra="root=/dev/sda2 ro console=tty0"
View better:-
This technique would work for Debian Dom0 as well :-

If you would read it you would understand what you are doing

Sorry for the
incomplete command; I do use the # xm console fedora11; but my problem is that
I can''t find the newly created VM; as I''m in the current
directory (/home/xen-testimages) where I have 3 files:
I run the command (#xm create /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg).
My problem is, I don''t know where the domain fedora11 is being created?
I know when I create similar Debian-image(domU); the location goes to
/home/xen/domains; but in this Fedora(domU) case where I downloaded the image
not created it myself from Xen-create command.
I even created a directory manually on the same location as of Debian domUs but
still I''m
getting the Error: Domain
''/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3'' does not
exist."
Thanks for help!

Hello there,
For xm console, you use the hostname, not the config name.
e.g xm console node1 , not xm console node1.cfg
