[Xen-users] Re: How to create a Fedora 11 domU under Debian 5 dom0?

[Jan Muhammad <janmuhd@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I have downloaded a Fedora 11 Xen image from (http://stacklet.com/downloads/images/lister/Fedora); after un-tar in a directory and changing kernel boot and disk location to look for kernel and image; I created an image with file and I can see the output of the command:
 
#xm create /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg

 "Using config file "/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg".
Started domain fedora.11.x86.img"

But when I try to login into the newly created VM with
# xm console /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg

The error message says:

Error: Domain '/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg' does not exist."

Even copying those Xen cf and image files to the location where my other VMs reside doesn't solve my problem and I get the same error as above.

Any ideas how I can login into the newly created VM? Or what step I'm missing?

PS: My other xen VMs (based on Debian) are located at some other directory and I can easily login to those.

The easiest way - to get a ready image. Like from this:
http://stacklet.com/downloads/images/lister/Fedora

The configuration file would you like for task.
