Greetings, My install procedure looks like this:
pfexec /usr/sbin/zfs create -V 5gb tank/mydom pfexec virt-install \ --file=/dev/zvol/dsk/tank/mydom \ --location=http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/centos/5.3/os/x86_64/ \ --mac=00:16:3e:01:09:91 \ --nographics \ --name mydom \ --os-type=linux \ --paravirt \ --ram 256 \ --vcpus=1 I run through the text-based CentOS installer, pretty much taking the defaults all the way through, and everything works well. With CentOS 5.4 (changing only the version number in the location URL above), things fall apart. The install runs smoothly, but when the domU gets rebooted, I have the following result: insmod: error inserting '/lib/dm-raid45.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module Scanning and configuring dmraid supported devices Scanning logical volumes Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "VolGroup00" using metadata type lvm2 Activating logical volumes 2 logical volume(s) in volume group "VolGroup00" now active Creating root device. Mounting root filesystem. mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: No such device Setting up other filesystems. Setting up new root fs setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory no fstab.sys, mounting internal defaults setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory Switching to new root and running init. unmounting old /dev unmounting old /proc unmounting old /sys switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! libvir: Xen Daemon error : GET operation failed: libvir: error : invalid argument in virDomainLookupByUUIDString ...Actually, there was a lot more noise than that. I'm not sure how much of it is meaningful. The whole output is here: http://vm.marget.com/CentOS_5.4_error.txt What am I doing wrong? Also, am I doing the right thing with installing grub on the domU's MBR? My prior xen experience involved keeping the kernel outside of the domU disk. This pygrub business is all new to me. Thanks very much. /chris -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
