Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Loop module not loaded

Hi,

 

On debian you need to create or open

 

/etc/modprobe.d/local-loop

 

and add

 

options loop max_loop=128

 

I assume it’s the same for Ubuntu, reboot when complete

 

Thanks

 

Ian

Subject: [Xen-users] Loop module not loaded

 

Hi,

When I create a guest VM image using "sudo xen-create-image --hostname=XX --ide --force --dir=XXX --ip=X.X.X.X"

I got the warning that "loopback module is not loaded, and you are using loopback images. Run the following to load the module:

modprobe loop max_loop=255"

I typed "modprobe loop max_loop=255" according to the instructions, but it does not work. So My first question is how to load the loop module? My host OS is Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick
.


Next, when I start the VM using "sudo xm create -c /etc/xen/XX.cfg".

It gives me the alert that "/dev/hda2 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!"

My feeling is that these are the related problems. I hope someone can shed some light on how to solve it.


Thanks a lot!!!
