Hi. I got some server running xen 3.4 from gitco, the setup was easy: groupinstall Virtualization done. Now, I want to try some settings in my home machine, follow the same instructions and got this: Warning: Group Virtualization does not exist. No packages in any requested group available to install or update yum grouplist Doesn''t show any Virtualization just Xen, I try that one but is not using gitco port. Some knows if something change? Centos 5.8 updated. Try Gitco 3.3.x, 3.4.x, 4.1.x

Don''t forget to put the .repo file into /etc/yum.repos.d. CentOS 5.7 used "Virtualization" group, 5.8 got bumped to "Xen" in preparation for KVM as an alternative virtualization technology. These are our standard installation instructions for "no special command line parameters necessary" machines, such as our desktop-quality test beds: # yum update # reboot # cd /etc/yum.repos.d # wget http://www.gitco.de/repo/GITCO-XEN4.1.2_x86_64.repo # yum update # yum groupinstall Xen # reboot Some hardware needs "pci=nomsi" on the vmlinuz module line used by the Xen hypervisor to load up the dom0. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-users

Once I shut the yum groupinstall Xen. I see that is using xen 3.0.x from base not the gitco, check: Virtualization-en-US noarch 5.8-1.el5.centos base 6.8 M gnome-applet-vm i386 0.1.2-1.el5 base 76 k kernel-xen i686 2.6.18-308.8.2.el5 updates 21 M libvirt i386 0.8.2-25.el5 base 3.0 M virt-manager i386 0.6.1-16.el5 base 1.6 M virt-viewer i386 0.0.2-3.el5 base 25 k virt-who noarch 0.5-5.el5 base 44 k xen i386 3.0.3-135.el5_8.2 updates 1.9 M the only package that is using from gitco is: python-virtinst noarch 0.500.0-1.el5 gitco-xen3.4.4 475 k This is not right, see my other server running gitco: xen.x86_64 3.4.3-5.el5 installed xen-libs.i386 3.0.3-132.el5 installed xen-libs.x86_64 3.4.3-5.el5 installed What u think?
