Hi,I tried to run a SLES 10 installation as (pv) guest in Fedora 7 but the guest does not start.
First, I installed SLES using HVM which was somewhat slow (due to Suse's graphics mode) but worked. After that I installed kernel-xen from the SLES install media.
I found Gerd Hoffmann's very helpful page http://et.redhat.com/~kraxel/xen/suse-guest.html and tried to incorporate his suggestions regarding the domUloader.
My current config: ----------------------------------------------------------------- name = "sles10_64_test" memory = "512" disk = [ 'tap:aio:/var/lib/xen/images/sles10_64_test,hda,w', ] vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:4a:f5:f0, bridge=eth0', ] vfb = [ 'type=vnc,vncunused=1' ] uuid = "b1fd65e84128ced2dc435bb9d2e1861e" bootloader="/tmp/sles-install/domUloader.py" bootentry = "hda2:/boot/vmlinuz-xen,/boot/initrd-xen" vcpus=1 on_reboot = 'restart' on_crash = 'restart' -----------------------------------------------------------------/tmp/sles-install/domUloader.py exists and is executable, SElinux is configured as permissive.
I guess something is wrong with the bootloader, from /var/log/xen/xend.log: ----------------------------------------------------------------- 2007-07-26 19:28:47 4590] DEBUG (XendDomainInfo:1463) XendDomainInfo.constructDomain[2007-07-26 19:28:47 4590] DEBUG (balloon:113) Balloon: 538932 KiB free; need 2048; done.

(xm command hangs, nothing happens anymore, have to kill the guest)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Did anyone manage to run SLES {9,10} as pv guest?
thank you for reading :-)
