Re: [Xen-users] cent os domu creation problem

[Tapas Mishra <mightydreams@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am installing CentOs 5.5 as DomU on Debian Lenny running amd64
2.6.26-2-xen-amd64

I downloaded two files vmlinuz and initrd from here
http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.5...64/images/xen/
copied them to /boot and changed their names to
vmlinuz-xen-install
and initrd-xen-install

In my /etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf
I made following changes to be able to install centOS domu via rinse method
Code:
install-method = rinse
dist   = centos-5
kernel      = /boot/vmlinuz-xen-install
initrd      = /boot/initrd-xen-install
I mounted a CentOS5.5. ISO
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/root/centos.iso bs=1024 count=1
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /root/centos.iso /root/inscd/

So /root/inscd/ had the contents of CentOS cd

Then I did to create image
Code:
xen-create-image --hostname=new_centOS --size=96GB --swap=2048 Mb
--ip=192.1.100.19 --memory=1024 --arch=amd64 --role=udev --force
--install-method=rinse --install-source=/root/inscd/


every thing went fine
at the end there was a new_centOS.cfg file
Then executed
xm create new_centOS.cfg -c
the output is following and it hanged in between no more proceeding.
Code:
Using config file "./new_centOS.cfg".
