Re: FC6 Guest install Hangs - working

In case anyone else has a problem like this, I switched to http from nfs, and it's been installing just fine.

I was using nfs path of:

What is the install location? nfs:192.168.0.151:/mnt/fc6

and the showmount said:

# /usr/sbin/showmount -e
Export list for host:
/mnt/fc6 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0

with an export of:
# cat /etc/exports
/mnt/fc6 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash,async)

... and it didn't work. I'm not sure why, but maybe you do. Either way, we're doing great now.

Hi.

I have a fresh install of FC6 (2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6xen) dom0 running on 64bit install, unfortunately I can't seem to get any domU guests (all same OS) to install, they hang after the "network setup" screen of anaconda.

I've tried {virt-install,virt-manager (gui), xenguest-install (what I used previously on fc5)}, using nfs mount of 64 bit install dvd fc6. All seem to hang right after the network setup screen, when I enter the network parameters manually (not dhcp). Here's a screen capture of what it looks like:

(notice the weird A at the top right).

--> Extra bits: I have three machines that all exhibit the same behavior. 2 are Dell 1950s and one is an 1850. All are 2 dual cores. 16GB Ram. File backed for now. I've applied the Broadcom network fix to make the network behave ( http:// mywiki.ncsa.uiuc.edu/wiki/Dell_PE1950_NIC_Firmware_Workaround ), only I guess it's not.

Does any of this ring a bell? Did I not completely fix the broadcom? I'm not sure what to look at... the log files seem clean, but I can post if that would help.
