[Xen-users] XENBUS: Timeout connecting to device

[Scott Meyers <scottmeyers@xxxxxxxx>]

I read many postings about such problem, but none solved the problem I have in 
hand.

I followed the instructions posted by Pasi Karkkainen at: 
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/RHEL6Xen4Tutorial

but I did not do the same partitioning. I have 3 partitions: / /boot and /vm on 
on a 2HDs RAID1 server (no LVM). Xen v4.0.1, qemu, libvirt and the kernel was 
built and installed successfully. But, I am unable to create DomU. I ran the 
command: 

xm create -f myxennie install=true -c

 

the system get stuck showing the following error message:

 

---------- start error message ----------

---------- end error message ----------

 

I tried different disk methods: tap:aio:/ and phy:/ and file:/ with 
diskimage.img,xvda1,w but keep getting the same error message.

 

I use "File Based Setup" for Virtual Disks:


mkdir -p /xens/vm001/
dd if=/dev/zero of=/xens/vm001/diskimage.img bs=1024k count=5000
dd if=/dev/zero of=/xens/vm001/swapimage.img bs=1024k count=512 

mkfs.ext3 /xens/vm001/diskimage.img
mkswap /xens/vm001/swapimage.img

mount -o loop /xens/vm001/diskimage.img /mnt

 

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you
