Hello Everyone:
I'm new to Xen and have some Linux experience. I have installed Fedora Core 6 on a Intel 3.2 GHZ machine. (Note: I have 1 machine to test with.) I have 6GB of RAM. My ultimate goal is to install a few versions of Fedora Core 3 on the box. (I have an old application that uses FC3) I can start up the virt-install GUI with no problems. My questions revolve around the location of FC3.
1. I know it can't be installed from a FC3 Install CD. <-- I don't understand why this is not supported. It would seem to be the easiest thing to do.
2. I know I can use NFS or HTTP.
3. I have Apache Web Server running and NFS is enabled.
Here are the questions
1. If I want to use http or NFS, do I copy the entire FC3 Install CD to some place on the hard drive? Is the copy a *.iso file or is it the individual files from the CD? This has never been clear for me. I have seen conflicting information on the net about this
2. If I use http where do I put the files. (under /var/www/…??)
3. I made a directory called /tmptest and copied the iso image to it. I edited the /etc/exports file and added a line like this
/tmptest 192.168.107.14(rw,sync) <-- I assumed this means 192.168.107.14 has rw write access to /tmptest. This seems to make sense but the installation seems to always say invalid NFS source.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Phil Willemann
