Xen project Mailing List

I solved the issue. I had to remove the busybox package and install then alone the patch one.

Hello people.

I was using Xen 4.4 with 2 Windows until I had to do a VGA and USB passthrough. I couldn't do it following the steps and guides from here and Xen Project. Because a HVM didn't get a VGA passthrough trying different ways, I wanted to update. But I cannot do for an error during the compilation. Is the same error and it doesn't matter which version I tried to install. For me, I don't want to update yet, because I installed everything from Xen with xen-linux-system-amd64 and xen-tools, but it didn't work for me.

So, I have here the final step with the installation and the problem of the make world. I think the problem comes from the tools.

End of the log.

My system is a i7 4700EQ with 16GB RAM and enough free space in HDD.
Any help is always welcome. Thanks in advance.

Manu.
