Might be of interest to other FreeBSD users on the list, FreeBSD 10 is expected to work out of the box on XenServer 6.2 with today's commit. The Beta ISO snapshot should be out in the next couple of days. http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=256423 On XenServer versions up to an including 6.2, paravirtualized CDROM support is broken. When running in an HVM domain, ignore paravirtualized instances of CDROM media, and instead rely on native drivers attaching to emulated hardware. This functions correctly on all currently known Xen based platforms. Many thanks to Roger Pau Monné from Citrix for all the work. -- @shankerbalan M: +91 98860 60539 | O: +91 (80) 67935867 shanker.ba...@shapeblue.com | www.shapeblue.com | Twitter:@shapeblue ShapeBlue Services India LLP, 22nd floor, Unit 2201A, World Trade Centre, Bangalore - 560 055 CloudStack Bootcamp Training on 27/28 November, Bangalore http://www.shapeblue.com/cloudstack-training/ This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
