Re: [Xen-users] Windows 2003 DomU reboots sentire erver on create



I'm trying to get a Windows 2003 domu running, and I'm having
difficulties.  Any help would be much appreciated!  About the server:
It's an IBM x series running AMD64, x64 install of Gentoo Linux.

I have it up and running with a pretty standard Xen 3.0 install, and the
Linux domUs work perfectly.

When I try to start Windows 2003, the whole server completely reboots.
I am following the Xen Windows Howto PDF.

This is definitely some kind of bug in your version of Xen.

What point release are you installing? i.e. 3.0.[01234] or -unstable? I'd recommend upgrading to the latest release (which is 3.0.4) to test whether your problem still occurs.

Also, you're presumably installing 64-bit Win 2k3? If you were to try a 32-bit install I have a hunch it'd work OK. I realise that probably doesn't solve your problem though... Last I remember, 64-bit support for Windows was a bit less mature than 32-bit support, so presumably there may still be some kinks.

We may want to take this to the xen-devel list as a bug, if we can't work out some other solution. Good luck in the meantime!

Cheers,
Mark


Here's a basic config I am using that is based on the howto, other then
that I am using a file as the filesystem rather then an LVM:

kernel = '/usr/lib64/xen/boot/hvmloader'
builder='hvm'
memory = 512
name = 'winxendefault'
vif = [ ' ' ]
disk = [ 'file:/xen_fs/win2k3_1,hda,w' ]
cdrom='/xen_images/win2k3_cd.iso'
boot='d'
sdl=1
vnc=0
vncviewer=0
device_model = '/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm'

Here is some debug output from the crash in xend.log:
