Hi All,
I'm having a similar issue as Ian Tobin some weeks ago here:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2010-02/msg00645.html
I'm using Debian Squeeze amd64, downloaded the experimental debian
xen-amd64 kernel with pv_ops support.
linux-headers-2.6.32-5-common-xen_2.6.32-13_amd64.deb
linux-headers-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64_2.6.32-13_amd64.deb
linux-image-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64_2.6.32-13_amd64.deb
linux-kbuild-2.6.32_2.6.32-1_amd64.deb
xen-linux-system-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64_2.6.32-13_amd64.deb
I downloaded and compiled Xen 4.0 as specified here:
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Xen4.0
I used the command
hg clone -r RELEASE-4.0.0 http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-4.0-testing.hg
to check out the sources. Compile and install went without a hitch.
Since debian squeeze uses grub2 it took me a while to find a working
config.
This is my 40_custom for grub2:
menuentry "Xen 4.0.0 / Squeeze Kernel 2.6.32-3-amd64 pvops" --class
debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
recordfail=1
if [ -n ${have_grubenv} ]; then save_env recordfail; fi
set quiet=1
insmod ext2
insmod ext4
set root='(hd1,1)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set
91ab2378-76a4-4ab6-9065-078307ce8268
multiboot /boot/xen-4.0.0.gz dummy=dummy dom0_mem=512M
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 dummy=dummy
root=UUID=91ab2378-76a4-4ab6-9065-078307ce8268 ro quiet
module /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64
}
If I use "xm create /path/to/config.cfg" the machine is paused, and
after 100 seconds I get "Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected.
Hotplug scripts not working".
I run udevd version 154, uuid is installed.
When I start "udevadm monitor" while the xm create command runs, this
is the output:
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing
KERNEL - the kernel uevent
KERNEL[1275038753.413971] add /devices/virtual/net/tap19.0 (net)
UDEV [1275038753.419757] add /devices/virtual/net/tap19.0 (net)
KERNEL[1275038854.255484] remove /devices/virtual/net/tap19.0 (net)
UDEV [1275038854.259336] remove /devices/virtual/net/tap19.0 (net)
This is my virtual machine config:
import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search('64', arch):
arch_libdir = 'lib64'
else:
arch_libdir = 'lib'
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory=2048
shadow_memory = 8
name = "xenwin7"
vif = [ ' bridge=eth0, mac=00:16:3e:00:12:34' ]
acpi = 1
apic = 1
disk = [ 'file:/home/hwieser/xen/domains/win01/disk.img,hda,w',
'file:/home/hwieser/xen/domains/windows7_ultimate.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
device_model = '/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
boot="dc"
sdl = 0
vnc = 1
vncconsole = 1
vncpasswd = ''
serial = 'pty'
usbdevice = 'tablet'
First I thought the issue was because the netbk module is missing, but
it's compiled in the kernel.
Here are the relevant parts of the .config:
# fgrep -i xen /boot/config-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64

And uname -a gives:
Linux jeatxenhw 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 #1 SMP Mon May 17 20:24:46 UTC 2010
x86_64 GNU/Linux
The vm is running windows 7, and I got it up and running once. I could
VNC in and start the install.
As it wanted to reboot after the install it was botched and never
worked again.
Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
regards,
Helmut
