RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] XEN on machines with EFI

["Zhang, Xiantao" <xiantao.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rodrigo,

         From your log, it should be caused by incorrect elilo. The current elilo for xen is a modified version, and it can support vmm option. You can get it from xen source @ ./xen/arch/ia64/tools/xelilo/xlilo.efi.

Pls have a try .

Thanks

Subject: [Xen-ia64-devel] XEN on machines with EFI

 

Hello!

I installed the xen-ia64 version on an Itanium2. I`m using Debian Sarge 3.1!
I configured the elilo.conf normally, but when I reboot... not shows the option "XEN" on my elilo!
How do I boot the xen using EFI? Anything different?

It hangs when try to load the line "vmm=/boot/xen.gz":

"Unkown option vmm
7 0 0x00006B 0x0000000000000018 unexpected trap
7 0 0x000066 0x0000000000000018 trap taken,number in ext PE
7 0 0x00003C 0x0000000000005400 trap taken,offset in ext PE"

My elilo.conf:

install=/usr/lib/elilo/elilo.efi

boot=/dev/sda1

delay=20

default=linux



image=/boot/vmlinuz

       label=linux

       root=/dev/sda2

       initrd=/boot/initrd.img

       read-only

 

image=/boot/xenlinuz

       vmm=/boot/xen.gz

       label=xen

       root=/dev/sda2

       initrd=/boot/initrd.xen

       read-only

       append="sync_console dom0_mem=768M max_addr=64G -- nomca root=/dev/sda2 xencons=ttyS8 console=ttyS8"

Thanks!
