Re: Fwd: [Xen-users] Unable to create more than 1 VM

[Thomas <iamkenzo@xxxxxxxxx>]

It still doesn't work. And my kernel is the one from the Debian
package for Xen 2.6.18. I still don't have any /dev/xvc0. I do have a
/dev/xen/evtchn though. Does it help?

Now what's interesting is that when I do "xm create -c VM1", I can
login to my DomU, and if I let it hang there for a while, while I am
logged in, I still get the error message printed on my screen, I found
that out while editing a file in vim, and suddenly after a few minutes
of inactivity:
INIT: Id "co" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes.

However I still have control over the console. We are just so close of
the solution...


So here is my DomU configuration file:
----
#  -*- mode: python; -*-
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-xen-amd64"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-xen-amd64"
memory = "256"
name = "VM1"
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:00:00:01, ip=10.0.0.1' ]
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/mapper/xenvg-VM1,/dev/hda1,w',
'phy:/dev/mapper/xenvg-VM1--swap,hda2,w' ]
root = "/dev/hda1"
extra = "console=xvc0 xencons=tty"
----

And the inittab of my DomU (I have removed some commented lines for brevity):
----
# /etc/inittab: init(8) configuration.
# $Id: inittab,v 1.91 2002/01/25 13:35:21 miquels Exp $

# The default runlevel.

And here is my /etc/securetty of DomU:
----
