Hi, all
I''m new to xen recently. I''ve managed to install the xen on a
BIOS machine,
and boot into xen dom0, setup a domU guest, all goes well.
So I decided to turn my desktop into a xen server. It''s running on
UEFI.
The machine runs on Gentoo Linux with kernel 3.11.0.
I''m using xen-4.2.2 , it''s built with efi USE FLAG , and
install the
xen-4.2.2.efi into /usr/lib64/efi/xen-4.2.2.efi.
My EFI partition is located in /boot/efi , the GRUB2 efi is located in
/boot/efi/EFI/GRUB2/grub.efi.
I''ve tried putting xen-4.2.2.efi to /boot/efi/EFI/gentoo/xen-4.2.2.efi
.
with the xen-4.2.2.cfg in the same directory.
Added a efi boot entry with `efibootmgr --create --gpt --disk /dev/sda
--part 1 --write-signature --label "XEN" --loader
"\\EFI\\gentoo\\xen-4.2.2.efi"`.
But it failed to boot (black screen, then the machine tried the next boot
entry, grub2 menu showed up.)
the xen-4.2.2.cfg looks like
[global]
default = gentoo
[gentoo]
options=console=vga loglvl=all
kernel=vmlinuz-3.11.0-gentoo
ramdisk=initrd-3.11.0-gentoo
kernel and ramdisk file just located in /boot
The docs didn''t help much.
http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/efi.html
So...
Where should I put the xen-4.2.2.efi and the corresponding config file into
? How should I configure the efibootmgr ?
Thanks.
