[Xen-users] Possible to boot domu from iso and get vnc?
I am trying to boot a domu from a clonezilla iso I have so I can copy the information over the network from the physical machine. I cannot get the thing to boot off the iso to save my life. In xen 4.0 what is the proper way to boot from an iso file using the standard xen_xm config files?

Once it''s installed you can switch to pv mode if you want. -Bruce _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
