Hi, For 10 times now i tried to install a VM in to my new XCP machine but everytime i get the same error: [root@xcp-digitog ~]# xe vm-start vm=Debian6 Error code: Using <class ''grub.GrubConf.Grub2ConfigFile''> to parse /boot/grub/grub.cfg Error parameters: WARNING:root:Unknown directive load_video, Traceback (most recent call last):, File "/usr/bin/pygrub", line 746, in ?, raise RuntimeError, "Unable to find partition containing kernel", RuntimeError: Unable to find partition containing kernel, [root@xcp-digitog ~]# It runs the installation correctly, HD detection works, it asks if i want to install grub and of course i answer with yes, but then at first bootup it just dies with above error. I have the same issue with Debian 5. I''m running XCP 0.5 Any pointers? Thanks, Peter _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

It seems to me that the problem is, that squeeze uses root (hd0,msdos1) instead of (hd0,0) in the grub config. So before the install would have finished I asked it to drop me to shell, and there I''ve edited the grub config file, and now have a working squeeze (64bit PV) install. Good luck!

Unfortunately I have no idea about the situation of the lenny install. I''ve never used a lenny PV install method, since I''ve used only 64bit lenny instals, installing first as a HVM and then after the installation of a suitable kernel converting it to PV. Cheers Geza> Ok that explains the squeeze problem, but lenny isn''t working either :-( > > On Wed, Jul 21, 2010 at 11:39 AM, Gémes Géza <geza@kzsdabas.hu > <mailto:geza@kzsdabas.hu>> wrote: > > 2010-07-21 09:54 keltezéssel, Peter den Hartog írta: >> Hi, >> >> For 10 times now i tried to install a VM in to my new XCP machine >> but everytime i get the same error: >> >> [root@xcp-digitog ~]# xe vm-start vm=Debian6 >> Error code: Using <class ''grub.GrubConf.Grub2ConfigFile''> to >> parse /boot/grub/grub.cfg >> Error parameters: WARNING:root:Unknown directive load_video, >> Traceback (most recent call last):, File "/usr/bin/pygrub", >> line 746, in ?, raise RuntimeError, "Unable to find partition >> containing kernel", RuntimeError: Unable to find partition >> containing kernel, >> [root@xcp-digitog ~]# >> >> It runs the installation correctly, HD detection works, it asks >> if i want to install grub and of course i answer with yes, but >> then at first bootup it just dies with above error.
