[Xen-users] New to Xen, tried to get Win 7 running in DomU
Hello, I am new to Xen, and to learn about it, I installed a Xen hypervisor with Debian squeeze as Dom0 per these (http://wiki.debian.org/Xen) instructions. The Xen hypervisor boots up fine, at least it seams to be fine. I then created a DomU with Win7 on it as per these instructions ( http://www.virtuatopia.com/index.php/Installing_and_Running_Windows_7_as_a_Xen_HVM_domainU_Guest ). However, the domain enters b state soon after it is started. I have not been able to install anything... Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 23083 12 r----- 56.8 xenwin7 2 1024 1 -b---- 11.0 I checked out the log file for the VM, and I see some errors, but I haven''t as to their meaning... Below is the log file: domid: 2 Using file /vms/win7/xenwin7.img in read-write mode Using file /dev/dvdrw in read-only mode Watching /local/domain/0/device-model/2/logdirty/cmd Watching /local/domain/0/device-model/2/command char device redirected to /dev/pts/1 qemu_map_cache_init nr_buckets = 10000 size 4194304 shared page at pfn feffd buffered io page at pfn feffb Guest uuid = 16b7837d-d1f3-e110-edc6-d36c64a6f37d Time offset set 0 populating video RAM at ff000000 mapping video RAM from ff000000 Register xen platform.

My HW config: Xeon X5650 CPU i5520 Chipset 24GB RAM nVidia GTX480 graphics card I''ll be honest, I have not googled for this error. If anyone could shed some light on this, I would be grateful. Thanks in advance. Regards Sandi _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
