Hello everyone.

I'm new on xen and i wanted to install a vm on a NFS
but i don't have any idea of how to do that, could
anyone tell me about a how to or something to help me
here.

I was trying to do it via virt-install:
[root@localhost ~]# virt-install 
What is the name of your virtual machine? prueba01
 How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 512
 What would you like to use as the disk (path)?
10.9.33.210:/VMS
 How large would you like the disk (10.9.33.210:/VMS)
to be (in gigabytes)? 5
 Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or
no) yes
 What is the install location?
/root/build/c5-custom.iso
 

Starting install...
Creating storage file...  100%
|=========================| 5.0 GB    00:00     
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/virt-install", line 633, in ?
    main()
  File "/usr/sbin/virt-install", line 578, in main
    dom = guest.start_install(conscb,progresscb)
  File

line 649, in start_install
    return self._do_install(consolecb, meter)
  File

    self._create_devices(meter)

line 557, in _create_devices
    disk.setup(progresscb)

    fd = os.open(self.path, os.O_WRONLY | os.O_CREAT)
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/root/10.9.33.210:/VMS'

my fstab looks like this:

LABEL=/                 /                       ext3  
 defaults        1 1

 defaults        0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sda2         swap                    swap  
 defaults        0 0
#/dev/sda3              /Virtual                ext3  
 defaults        1 2
10.9.33.210:/VMS        /mnt/maquinasvirtuales  nfs   
 defaults        0 0

I appreciate your help.
Thanks
Ivan.
