[Xen-users] NetBSD domU on Debian dom0

[Daniel Bareiro <daniel-listas@xxxxxxx>]

Hi all!

I'm trying to install a NetBSD domU because I want learn to use BSD
systems and I think that it could be a interesting alternative. Dom0 is
Xen 3.0.3-1 installed from Debian packages. But I've problems in access
to ISO image.

DomU config file:

sirius:~# cat /etc/xen/netbsd
kernel = "/boot/netbsd-INSTALL_XEN3_DOMU"
memory = 128
name = "netbsd3.1"
#disk = [ 'phy:vm/netbsd-3.1,0x3,w' ]
disk = [ 'file:tmp/i386cd-3.1.iso,0x04,r', 'phy:vm/netbsd-3.1,0x03,w' ]
root = "0x04"

# Replace with your IP info
ip = "192.168.1.10"
netmask = "255.255.255.0"
gateway = "192.168.1.2"


Out of "xm create -c netbsd":

Using config file "netbsd".
Started domain netbsd3.1

According to I can see:

xbd0: 207 MB, 512 bytes/sect x 425184 sectors   ---> ISO image
xbd1: 4096 MB, 512 bytes/sect x 8388608 sectors ---> LVM device

The problem is the selection of the medium/filesystem, I think. Could
someone help me? I test "unmounted fs" with:

device:         xbd0
file system:    cd9660
base directory: mnt2
set directory:  i386/binary/sets

But I get:

Status: Command failed
Command: /sbin/mount -rt cd9660 /dev/xbd0 /mnt2


Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Daniel
