Re: [Xen-users] [XCP] converting a .img to xva

[Peter den Hartog <peterdenhartog@xxxxxxxxx>]

Of course i did ;-)

I did it correctly because the script creates the file. I'm now trying the xvda thing, i'll let you know if it worked or not.

Thanks,

Peter

From:
http://www.xen.org/files/xva/README

"Report bugs to xen-devel or david.markey@xxxxxxxxxx"

Also, did you read carefully the README for instructions and caveats?

The process is not as simple as just running the commands.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Todd
