Hi all,
further testing showed that Windows 7, Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 2008 SBS
all show the same before: during installation and while expanding files, the
DomU's reboot all of a sudden. I discovered this in the qemu log files:
xc_map_foreign_batch: mmap failed: Cannot allocate memory
xc_map_foreign_batch error 12
Googling this does not provide me with a lot more info. Anyone ever seen these
messages and able to give a workaround?
thx,
B.
