Hi,
I would like to have Xen to run unmodified OS (Windows, and some other
Linuces). I know Linux may be ran Xen-aware, but the goal is to
experiment some kernel packaging, so that I need to use the distribution
kernel.
I got the FC5 isos.
I made a file "/etc/xen/fc5-guest.cfg" (see attached)
But the problem is about vifX interfaces.
Neither http://fr.gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_XEN#Windows_XP
nor http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xen_and_Gentoo tells how to bring up
such interface.
In fact I dont see anywhere any documentation on how to setup networking
for the need of Xen.
When I run Xen, I have:
asus ~ # xm create fc5-guest.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/fc5-guest.cfg".
VNC= 3
Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug
scripts not working.
bridge-utils is already emerged.
vnc is also emerged with USE="server"
What didi I do wrong?
kernel = "/usr/lib64/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 512
name = "fc5-guest"
vcpus=1
vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0' ]
disk =
['phy:/dev/sda5,ioemu:hda,w','file:/home/mihamina/downloads/isos/FC-5-i386-disc1.iso,hdc:cdrom,r']
device_model ='/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
boot='d'
vnc=1
vncviewer=1
serial='pty'
ne2000=0
