I decided to debootstrap me some debain domU :)
yes, I tried the debootstrap route and sat there watching in childlike
wonder as it presented me with a rainbow of failures. Left me muttering
something about rocket club open source projects as I am often given to
doing lately.
still, I think the QEMU based methodology has merit as it has a good
probability of being completely OS distribution independent and is much
much faster when deploying a new domU. Major problems being extracting
partitions and the warning message I described earlier.
I tried the dd and resize trick last night. It worked really really
well. The primary advantage of the copy method of propagating domU is
that it allows you to change filesystems to something other than what
you have on your baseline image. When I created the baseline domU
filesystem, I added dir_index to the mkfs specification. I've also
created reiserfs / filesystems from a ext3 baseline image.
anyway, I am happier than I've been in while and now I need to migrate
all of my old gentoo xen 2.0.4 domU partitions over to ubuntu domU's
