Here’s some additional details that might help:

 

Contents of /etc/xen/maildom:

name = "maildom"

uuid = "582e2253-91ce-d6b6-14b4-bf53475f8810"

maxmem = 256

memory = 256

vcpus = 1

bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"

vfb = [  ]

disk = [ "tap:aio:/srv/maildom.img,xvda,w" ]

vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:67:93:85,bridge=xenbr0" ]

 

And a screenshot of xm list showing the 2 domains running.

Please let me know if any other information would help diagnosing the problem.

Hello Xen community. After running virt-install for the first guest domain, CentOS installation script starts in text mode but does not find disk driver. The driver is listed (Compaq cciss) and selected, but disk is still not found.

 

Here are parameters fed to virt-install:

 What is the name of your virtual machine? maildom

 How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256

 What would you like to use as the disk (path)? /srv/maildom.img

 How large would you like the disk (/srv/maildom.img) to be (in gigabytes)? 40

 Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or no) no

 What is the install location? /dev/scd0

 

Kernel version is:

uname -r

2.6.18-53.1.13.el5xen

 

Mounted disks are:

mount

/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw)

proc on /proc type proc (rw)

sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)

devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)

Hardware is HP ProLiant DL-365 with AMD Opteron 1800 CPU.

 

Any help appreciated.
