When will this get fixed? We want to use Ubuntu 16.04 Server in production on Xen, but it is not usable this way.
I tried to boot paravirtualized with packages grub-xen and linux-image- virtual installed, but it didn't boot at all. Error in XenCenter: The server failed to handle your request, due to an internal error. The given message may give details useful for debugging the problem. message: xenopsd internal error: VM = d7a5dbd8-6fff-b29c-8fbe-9f998c4a00a4; domid = 91; Bootloader.Bad_error Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pygrub", line 903, in ? fs = fsimage.open(file, part_offs[0], bootfsoptions) IOError: [Errno 95] Operation not supported Also tried with boot parameter console=hvc0. Again without paravirtualization, booting works. $ systemctl status dev-hvc0.device ● dev-hvc0.device Loaded: loaded Active: inactive (dead) Maybe that helps. Can i do anything else to help debug this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1587009 Title: hvc0 not present Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: i have installed Ubuntu 16.04 with debootstrap on a XenServer 6.2. i have also installed xe-guest-utilities, grub-xen and linux-image- virtual. when booting the VM, i don't see anything in the XenCenter console. i think this is because there is no hvc0 tty. as written here, it should start automatically: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/serial-console.html > lscpu Hypervisor vendor: Microsoft Virtualization type: full maybe Ubuntu don't recognize Xen? how can i get this working? 229-4ubuntu4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1587009/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
