Hi folks - I have the XCP Xen Cloud iso version .5 and am trying to us this as a boot cd an AMD opteron 8354 based server. The boot CD seems to be stuck at "ISOLINUX 3.53 0x4c2b0b05 Copyright etc.." I have compared the md5 sum of the downloaded ISO to the one on the site and they match, I have also tried 3 different CD''s. Unfortunately I do not have another server to try. The screen remains on that ISOLINUX message, with a flashing prompt, and the CD continuously runs. I have let it run for upto 1 hour just in case it was "thinking". On this same server I have run through a debian and centos installation to verify the dvdrom/cdrom and other components are ok. Thanks for any suggestions! -Aaron _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

[Xen-users] can''t get networking to work with HVM XEN VM for windows server 2008
Given the following config why doesn''t the vm launch?  the only 
error I seem to get is
[2010-10-12 15:13:00 1840] ERROR (XendDomainInfo:2205) VM winserver2008 
restarting too fast (Elapsed time: 0.241631 seconds). Refusing to 
restart to avoid loops.
   If I comment out the vif line it launches fine.
    I have several para virtualized linux installs working fine with 
similar vif lines.  I''m running routed if it matters.
