I am working on moving our Xen servers to Ubuntu 20.04 and am having problems creating domu's using xen-tools. The xen-create-image execution completes but the resulting domu does not boot. Here is the command line I am using for the build. /usr/bin/xen-create-image --hostname=zoot.ca-zephyr.org \ --memory=4Gb --genpass=1 --size=40Gb --dhcp --vcpus=2 \ --pygrub --swap=2Gb --role=udev,/etc/xen-tools/role.d/cz-bionic \ --dist=bionic --arch=amd64The resulting container does not have grub installed. When I look at ? I see that the attempt is to install grub. But the "grub" package is not available on 20.04. At this point I started just hacking. I changed to using pvgrub by commenting out the 'bootloader' parameter in the domu configuration file and added the line 'which resulted in booting the container to the "grub>" prompt. But with the domu's /boot empty this of course did not lead anywhere. I then just hacked on /usr/share/xen-tools/focal.d/82-install-grub-legacy and changed the install line to 'grub2'. With that the domu boot directory was not empty, but the boot still stopped at the 'grub>' prompt. So, now that I have done this the wrong way I would be very grateful is someone could point me in the correct direction. Thanks in advance, Bill -- Bill MacAllister <bill@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
