RE: [Xen-users] Fail to create hvm domain



Thanks, Sven.  I'm trying to follow your advice and compile from source
obtained from Mercurial.  By following the instructions in the Xen
documentation I can compile fine, but dom0 won't boot.  I suspect I'm having
problems due to packages and/or lack of an initrd.  I don't have any
experience with kernel compiling or initrd images.  Could you explain any
more how you did this?  For example, what is the "FC5 config from the Xen
Kernel?"  And does it create a ramdisk for booting?

Thanks for any clues,

 - Steve

Hi , 

i tried to setup a HVM Domain with the FC5 packages, and failed with all of
them , even xen-3.0.2-4  from the development repro doesn't work. 
i check out the current xen3-unstable from the repository and used my FC5
config from the Xen Kernel to compile packages for FC5 , since then i am
able to create the HVM domains. At least Windows XP works, Vista fails to
boot ...

[Xen-users] Fail to create hvm domain

        




I'm using FC5 with its Xen 3.0.2-2 package and 2.6.16-1.2118_FC5xen0 kernel.
I've got a Pentium 9xx chip with virtualization enabled in the BIOS; it
appears to be VT-enabled, since xm dmesg includes "(XEN) VMXON is done".  I
base my config file on example.hvm and on previous emails to this list.
Unfortunately, I don't get very far.  

xm create winxp.conf
Error: (22, 'Invalid argument')

xend-debug.log gives me this:
ERROR: do_evtchn_op: HYPERVISOR_event_channel_op failed: -1

And xend.log spews out all of the stuff below my sig.  I've googled around
and not found any obvious answers.  Can anyone tell me where to start
looking to fix this?

Thanks,

Steve Brueckner, ATC-NY
