xen on lenny stock
Hey All,
Long time no email. Please cc me on replies, as I can't keep up with
this list and no longer subscribe.
SO I got some new hardware... to wit:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R
Drives: 4 250 GB SATA
Anyway, Etch worked, right up until boot time came. Every single
time I tried, I got dumped into a grubsh on boot and just got nowhere.
So I moved to testing...lo and behold it worked.
SO I am building my very minimal system up (I even unchecked "standard
system" on install to keep my dom0 lean)
Some packages I have installed:
ii libc6-xen 2.6.1-1+b1
ii xen-hypervisor 3.1.1-1
ii xen-tools 3.8-4
ii xen-utils-3.1- 3.1.1-1
ii xen-utils-comm 3.1.0-1
ii linux-image-2. 2.6.22-4
~# xm list
WARING! Can't find hypervisor information in sysfs!
Error: Unable to connect to xend: No such file or directory. Is xend
running?
# xend
WARING! Can't find hypervisor information in sysfs!
ERROR Internal error: Could not obtain handle on privileged command
interface (2 = No such file or directory)
Traceback (most recent call last):
(snipped traceback)
I found many copies all over the web of a post that describes this issue
and a solution:
http://www.debianhelp.org/node/11088
Except....
# dmesg |grep para
Booting paravirtualized kernel on bare hardware
... and the changelog for the kernel says:
* Update xen patch to changeset 48670 from fedora 2.6.20 branch.
* Support xen versions 3.0.4-1 and 3.0.3-1.
So.... am I reading this right that the linux-image currently in testing
does NOT support the version of xen in testing? Is there an easy
solution here? I don't really care hat version of xen I run so much as
that I want it to run and I do NOT want to be in the custome kernel
game.
