Hi Lance,
I have been pretty much following the link to rpath Wiki for installing
guest domain, especially the network monitoring system which the wiki
page points you to. I have been facing error while I create guest using
the procedure given. I am facing the error that says pygrub did not
return any value.Please try it and let me know if you are able to
successfully create the guest domain.

Thank you

Regards
Ananth

Hi,

I am running the latest xen package on Debian Lenny
and I want to
install a Linux vm with an ISO image.

How best do I make this happen.

I have not been able to get virt-manager to connect
to the xen
instance on my server from my Laptop.

I would really appreciate the help

Thanks

Lance

Hello Lance,

The easiest way I have found is to loop mount the iso
then expose it on
my webserver. I then use virt-manager to connect and
install with http.
That way I am able to install in paravirtual mode rather
than HVM.

You can also do the exact same thing from the command
line using ssh
from your laptop, look at the virt-install man page. I
would tcpdump on
your laptop and server to see why you are unable to connect.

Hope that helps,

Jon

Hi again,

Is it possible for a person to run a downloaded raw file
system in a
xen environment?

I have downloaded a vm from the rpath.org <http://rpath.org>

site and want to run the vm
on my xen system. It is a running file system that just
needs to be
booted.

I have manually created config files on my kvm qemu system
to run this
in the past. does xen have config files I could copy and use?

I apologies for the newbie questions.

Thanks

Lance

I have never used rpath images but a quick look on their site I
found
the link below. The first link about using a domU created by
rpath or
rmake and how to install it on a xen system might give you an idea.

Hi Jon,

I must be blind. I looked on their site and did not find that one.

Thanks again.

Lance

Hi Ananth,

I get the same error when I run xm create. I wonder if pygrub needs more that the documenation is telling us.

Lance
