Guys, I am following this discussion for a while. And googling about the idea of converting a HVM template to PV, I found out that it is an error prone task and the best thing to do is to create a PV VM and then a template that is based on a PV image.
So, I did it, I do not actually know if I can do this, but I would like to share it with you. The Template has already the password script that CS need to change a user password trough the interface (I configured the root user). Ubuntu 12.04.03 LTS 64 bits, you just need to download it and add to the CS as a template, do not forget to select the Other PV 64 bits on the OS type selection box and enable the password reset function, so when you create a VM it will create a password to the root user. https://www.dropbox.com/s/kf9pp4zfu550hg8/Ubuntu%2012.04LTS%20-%20PV%20VM%20with%20XenScripts.vhd 2013/9/9 France <mailingli...@isg.si> > Regarding createVHD.sh, which requires XenServer with NFS SR. > Doesn't createUbuntuCSimageXen.sh basically create a RAW image? > If so, it could be converted to VHD using vhd-util: > http://blogs.citrix.com/2012/**10/04/convert-a-raw-image-to-** > xenserver-vhd/<http://blogs.citrix.com/2012/10/04/convert-a-raw-image-to-xenserver-vhd/> > What do you think? > > Regards, > F. > > > On 7/9/13 4:17 AM, Carlos Reategui wrote: > >> Hi France >> I made some last minute adjustments so the script may have some issues >> but hopefully should be straight forward enough.
