Hi All, I'm trying to boot Ubuntu 12.04 LTS precise i386 as domU after a clean installation on Fedora F17 and/or F18 dom0 fully updated. Ubuntu precise was installed with virt-install --debug --connect xen:/// -n Ubuntu12LTS4 --nographics --vcpus=2 -r 1024 --arch=i686 -l http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/installer-i386 --network bridge=peth0 --os-type=linux --os-variant=ubuntuprecise --disk /dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.0.0.1:3260-iscsi-iqn.2011-01.it.tekno-soft:xen.vm.Ubuntu-lun-4 After a clean instllation I'm unable to boot anymore the new domU. BTW I was able to install and boot clean the 64bits version of the same distribution. Do you have any suggestion how to solve this? Thanks in advance.
