Fwd: How to create a Xen PV DomU with a dvd ISO image, using xl/xm
Hello, I was looking to create a Xen DomU with a .iso image saved in the hard disk. I ran into some trouble with http based install, hence looking at this option. This is what i have currently. Just wanted to know if I am on the right track here, and hoping to get some tips if somebody has similar experience. I compiled Xen 4.1.5 from source on a Fedora 17 Dom0, and I want to create DomU images. I have downloaded the .iso image for Fedora 17. I have a logical volume xmf17lvm on volume group xenvg. Here is my install profile ( will use "xm create -c xmf17install" ) name="xmf17install" memory=1024 vcpus=1 disk=[''file:/home/isoimage/Fedora17.iso,xvdc:cdrom,r'',''phy:/dev/xenvg/xmf17lvm,xvda,w''] vif = [ ''bridge=br0'' ] onreboot = ''restart'' oncrash = ''restart'' boot=''d'' builder=''hvm'' Its almost 3 AM here, so I am giving this a break today. Will work on this tomorrow afternoon. If anyone has any helpful hints or comments regarding my approach, please let me know. -- Ranjith krishnan _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-users
