Hi,
I'm trying to setup a paravirtualized Debian Lenny on a Centos 5.3 host.
With the virt-install that comes with centos/rhel I was only able to
install it using HVM and then paravirtualizing it afterwards.
Now I have compiled more recent version of libvirt and the management
tools that support installing Debian Lenny directly but I'm wondering
what URL I'm supposed to specify? With centos/rhel I use the path
/(...)/centos/5/os/x86_64/ but Debian Lenny apparently uses a different
way to organize it's repositories. What would the correct url parameter
be for a Lenny 64 bit install?
Does
http://honk.sigxcpu.org/con/Installing_Debian_Lenny_in_a_Xen_DomU_using_virtinst.html
help?
That's what I tried after checking out the python-virtinst sources looking
for the proper URL and that seems the solve the virt-install part of the
problem but shortly after booting the debian installation kernel I get a
panic on the guests console:
