.... New to this list & definitely new to virtualization :-/ .... I am
trying to setup a 64-bit CentOS 5.6 VM on a 64-bit FC14 server host, all
patched up as of a couple of weeks ago. uname -a on the host shows:
[wam@Q6600, CFD, 9:24:23am] 540 % uname -a
Linux Q6600 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Feb 7 07:06:44 UTC 2011
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[wam@Q6600, CFD, 9:52:43am] 541 %
I access the server by ssh on my LAN. I was working on this last Sunday
& got stuck, see below. I posted this question to a couple of other
lists & had no takers, so here I am here. The server runs in runlevel 3
& has no gfx card onboard, so I am working from the command line. I had
a couple of abortive attempts at setup, which got as far as initializing
my disk storage for the VM, then the following:
[root@Q6600:/etc, Sun Aug 07, 05:08 PM] 1339 # virt-install -n
CentOS-5.6-64bitVM -r 2048 --arch=x86_64 --cpu core2duo,disable=vmx
--vcpus=1,maxvcpus=1,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=1 --os-type=linux
--os-variant=rhel5 --disk
path=/home/VMs/CentOS.5.6-64bit-VM/disk.img,size=50 --cdrom
/home/ISOs/CentOS-5.6/64bit/CentOS-5.6-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso
--autostart --prompt
This will overwrite the existing path
'/home/VMs/CentOS.5.6-64bit-VM/disk.img'
Do you really want to use this disk (yes or no)
yes

virsh # help
The install began OK, right after the 'Pango-WARNING' message, in a
separate window, quite readable, started booting & scrolling text past
*FAST*, for about 15 sec., then hung, right after a line about 'serial
port ....' (I couldn't click-&-drag to capture text from the VM window,
going from memory). I let it sit for about 5 min. to be sure it was
really hung, then clicked the VM window out, whereupon the message about
'installation still in progress' & the rest appeared. I poked around in
virsh a bit as you can see, but couldn't figure anything out. I tried
(re)connecting to the console of the VM & that hung, I had to kill the
virsh command from another window. I attach syslog output from the
proceedings. I am *sure* this is pilot error, but I am stuck for now.
Any assistance appreciated :-) ....
