Re: [Xen-users] cent os domu creation problem

[Tapas Mishra <mightydreams@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am mentioning all the steps that I have done till now.



Step 1)
I created
lvcreate --name domu3-swap --size 2G virtualization
lvcreate --name domu3-root --size 98G virtualization

Step 2)
wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/images/xen/vmlinuz -O
/boot/vmlinuz-xen-install
wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/images/xen/initrd.img
-O /boot/initrd-xen-install

Step3 )
Created a centos.cfg file.
Where gave path to above downloaded vmlinuz and initrd.
Probably this file may have some error.
You can see the file here

This is a working domu cfg file
http://pastebin.com/Kzvghk9e

This is the file created based on above
http://pastebin.com/5ZXqk6xp

Step 4) Under section  Example kickstart file on
 http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/InstallingCentOSDomU

I created a kickstart file.(Which later on after I found was not
working had discarded the idea of using it and going to a text based
install)

Step 5) As far as my understanding is for VNC in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp
(vnc-listen '127.0.0.1')
(vncpasswd 'a')
These two lines are to be there.If there is any thing more then let me know.

Step 6) Also in DomU that is CentOS we are trying to install

vnc=1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
vncpasswd='a'

Step 7) To start installation did
xm create /etc/xen/centos.cfg -c

After some minutes there was an error Hotplug scripts not working.


Which ever step above was wrong let me know.If I have missed some
thing then correct me.
