Using a vm config file with the following entries and the domU kernel as the first title in grub.conf name = "test" memory = 512 disk = ['file:/temp/fc8-i386.img,sda,w'] bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub" I tested using 'xm create' in Xen-API mode by enabling and disabling the 'bootloader' line and got this here: - without the patch and the bootloader line 'on' : 'Internal Error: Had a bootloader specified, but no disks are bootable' - without the patch and the bootloader line 'off': 'Internal Error: Had a bootloader specified, but no disks are bootable' - with the patch and the bootloader line 'on' : * boots domU * - with the patch and the bootloader line 'off': * boots domU * I think the patch solves the problem with the bootloader. Is it possible to have pygrub display its GUI while doing 'xm create'? How?
