[Xen-users] Installing/Configuring Xen on Fedora Core 15!
Hi, I have been trying to install/configure Xen on my desktop machine running Fedore core 15, in the applications(FC GUI) I can see Virtual Machine Manager, when I click it shows melocalhost(QEMU) and localhost(Xen), if I try to connect to Xen I get an error message: "Unable to open a connection to the Xen hypervisor/daemon" and further it says: "Verify that: A Xen host kernel was booted or The Xen service has been started". During restart I can''t find any option for Xen kernel, but when running normal FC15 by running command # /etc/init.d/xend restart and getRestarting xend (via systemctl): OK Also, the command # xm shell provides me the xen shell but # xm list shows me Error: Unable to connect to xend: No such file or directory. Is xend runnig? Basically I followed the instructions from : http://rackerhacker.com/2011/08/05/xen-4-1-on-fedora-15-with-linux-3-0/ to install Xen on FC15. Now wondering what I did wrong in setup or what should I do to get Xen running on my FC15 system. Is there any goog step-by-step guide to installing Xen on Fedora Core 15? Thanks in advance for help. -Jan Muhammad _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Re: Problem while Installing/Configuring Xen on Fedora Core 15!
Hi, You mention that you can''t find any option for Xen when you restart - you have to modify /boot/grub/grub.conf and add the Xen entry manually. I don''t think grub1 picks up the Xen kernels when rebuilding grub.conf - only grub2 (on F16) seems to, so you''ll need to update your grub config whenever a new kernel comes out. On an unrelated note, why Fedora 15 and not Fedora 16?
