Hello Dear everybody!
I just installed CentOS 5.3 and try the built-in Xen 3.1 with it. But even the
typical ttyLinux doesn't work when the domain is created.-- it just doesn't give
me the login prompt while the domain ttylinux is booted.
[root@soe-hd513-pc102 nimbus]# xm create ttylinux-xen.conf -c
Using config file "./ttylinux-xen.conf".

Apparently the original configuration file for ttylinux image needs to be
adapted. My configuration file ttylinux-xen.conf is like this:
------------------
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5xen.img" ### I must have the ramdisk
option.
memory = 64
name = "ttylinux"
vif = ['']
ip = "192.168.1.3"
disk = ['tap:aio:/home/wei/work/nimbus/ttylinux-xen,sda1,w'] ### file: also
works.
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
extra = "3 xencons=console" ### This option works in Xen 3.2 on Ubuntu 8.04.
-------------------
If I remove the extra option, or try to use
extra = "3 xencons=tty" or extra ="3 xencons=tty console=tty0"
no good either.
I tried other images than the typical ttylinux, and got the same problem.
I digged into the Xen maillist archive and tried to find some solution who had
the same problem. Somebody suggested to modify the image file by changing
/etc/inittab and the questioner said it worked. But I don't want to change image
yet because the image was working when I tried it on Ubuntu with Xen 3.2.
Actually I think Xen 3.1 should work perfectly with a fresh installed CentOS.
Could anybody please help?
Thank you in advance!
Wei
