Hi, I am trying to set up a Xen based virtual server. I have rebooted the machine into the xen kernel and set everything up, I am at the point (or rather have been for the last few days) at setting up a DomU. I have created the config file (attached below) yet when I start the DomU up I can't see any disk drives, CD drives or get a network connection, there is no dhcp server in this setup. ---- Start Config File ------ kernel = "/media/CentOS/vmlinuz-xen-kernel" ramdisk = "/media/CentOS/initrd-xen-install.img" #extra = "text" extra = "text ks=http://131.251.200.2/kickstart.cfg"; builder='linux' memory = "2048" name = "delta" cpus = "" # leave to Xen to pick vcpus = "2" vif= ['bridge=xenbr0',] ip="85.159.63.150" netmask="255.255.255.192" gateway="85.159.63.131" dhcp="off" disk = ['file:/media/CentOS/CentOS-5.2-x86_64-bin-DVD.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'] disk = ['phy:/dev/xen/deltasda,xvda,w','phy:/dev/xen/deltasdb,xvdb,w'] root = "/dev/xvda" on_poweroff = 'destroy' on_reboot = 'restart' on_crash = 'restart' ---- End Config File ------ I downloaded the kernel and initrd file from CentOS for the DomU at: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/x86_64/images/xen/ I am having to do this by the command line and the bootup for the machine is: Bootdata ok (command line is ip=85.159.63.150:1.2.3.4:85.159.63.131:255.255.255.192::eth0:off root=/dev/xvda text ks=http://131.251.200.2/kickstart.cfg) Linux version 2.6.18-92.el5xen (mockbuild@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 4.1.2 20071124 (Red Hat 4.1.2-42)) #1 SMP Tue Jun 10 19:20:18 EDT 2008 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: Xen: 0000000000000000 - 0000000080800000 (usable) No mptable found.
