Hi, After my crashing Media VM yesterday (still haven''t gotten a response how this can happen, and how to boot it in safe mode) i tried to re-install the VM because i kinda need this VM. But, after the crash of yesterday i come in to the next strange thing.. I created my new VM and tried to start it: [root@xcp ~]# xe vm-start vm=Media Error code: INVALID_SOURCE Error parameters: Unable to access a required file in the specified repository: ftp://ubuntu.tiscali.nl/pub/mirror/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/xen/vmlinuz., , [root@xcp ~]# Now, if you check that directory: ftp://ubuntu.tiscali.nl/pub/mirror/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/xen The file is there. I had the same problem with the offical US mirror: http://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/xen/ file also there Can anybody explain what''s going on? This used to work great.. Now i basicly can''t install a Debian 6, (you can only install 5 and upgrade to 6) and can''t install Ubuntu.. Is it time to change back to normal Xen? I''m using XCP 1.0.

Update, i fixed it. Thanks to mcclurmc_home on IRC i got it working, all i had to do was: 1. Download the Ubuntu 10.04.2 server edition (32 bit) 2. burn it and put it in my node (this can also be done with iso''s or nfs, but i was lazy) 3. create a new VM with Open Xen Manager (again, lazy ftw) 4. attach a HD & network (make sure the HD is bootable ;-)) 5. attach the host DVD drive to de VM 6. Boot, install, reboot! I got a Ubuntu 10.04 LTS up and running again thanks to this, i don''t know what''s up with the mirrors but i was told by a little bird that this prop will fixed in XCP 1.1. Untill than you can use this work arround.. /happypanda!

Ok, everything seems to be working fine :-). Only one question tho, something i don''t have on my other VM''s: Your CPU appears to be lacking expected security protections. Please check your BIOS settings, or for more information, run: /usr/bin/check-bios-nx --verbose Anyway to tweak this? Something to worry about?
