Should this work out of the box? There is no devuan.d directory there, you can create it by copying /usr/share/xen-tools/debian.d to devuan.d and then edit 20-setup-apt and change the default sources.list I remember changing /etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf and adding a "mirror" and "mirror_ascii" tags, and commenting out the guessed "mirror" line, which did not work then (it might work now). ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
[DNG] Problems configuring xen-create-image for Devuan
Hi, I would appreciate a pointer for the following problem, please: I'm trying to create a new DomU with xen-create-image on a Devuan/Ascii Dom0 machine. It seems that Xen default configuration doesn't know Devuan. I found this instruction from 2015 https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/How_to_install_non-Debian_guests_on_Debian_Dom0,_Xen_4.4#Devuan but running xen-create-image after the suggested changes I get the error: ERROR: 'dist' argument takes a distribution name (see /usr/share/xen-tools for valid values) That directory doesn't have a Devuan or Ascii sub-directory which seems to be the cause of the error. Should this work out of the box? It has been years I last created an DomU this way and before delving in more configuration scripts: Am I on the right track here? Has anybody solved this already and are the Devuan-corrected scripts out there somewhere? Thanks in advance Gyelt -- A happy Devuan user ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
