[Xen-users] Problems running Debian as Guest System on SLES10 Dom0



Hi,

I have a problem with my SLES10 xen system...I'm using xen 3.04. ok...first I created a debian guest system with debootstrap, i worked well by using this configuration:

kernel = '/boot/vmlinuz-xen'
ramdisk = '/boot/initrd-xen'
memory = 256
name = "debian"
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:cd:ed:4b' ]
disk = [ 'file:/vm/tests/debian/disk0,xvda1,w', 'file:/vm/tests/debian/disk1,xvda2,w']
root = "/dev/xvda1 ro"
extra = 'xencons=tty1 console=tty1'

now i would like to use the graphical xserver, but the guest can't start it, maybe its a problem of the emulation or...lets say it this way i dont know, should i add some parameter in my configuration so that i can use the graphical interface?

ok now my second question. I WOULD LIKE TO USE THE DEBIAN KERNEL :).

I tried to install the xen fixed kernel via apt on the machine. now i tried to install grub but it didn't worked (i tried to edit the device.map manually for /dev/xvda/ but it didnt worked). Does everbody know how its possible to run a debian xen kernel on a SLES10 dom0?

my configuration looks like this
name = "debian"
builder="linux"
memory = 256
builder="linux"
bootloader="/usr/lib/xen/boot/domUloader.py"
bootargs="--entry=xvda1:/boot/vmlinuz-xen,/boot/initrd-xen"
disk = [ 'file:/vm/tests/debian/disk0,xvda1,w', 'file:/vm/tests/debian/disk1,xvda2,w']
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:cd:ed:4b' ]
extra = 'xencons=tty1 console=tty1'
