03:57 < tessier_> Hello all!
03:57 < tessier_> I just set up xen on a development server here...When I boot it says file not found: /boot/xen.gz
03:57 < tessier_> This is RHEL4. The / is in a lvm volume. 
03:57 < tessier_> I added the module line to use my initrd
03:59 < tessier_>  /boot/xen.gz definitely exists.
03:59 < tessier_> But grub may not know how to access it directly. Maybe I need to put it in the initd?

04:21 < tessier_> argh
04:21 < tessier_> The documentation is wrong. Again.
04:21 < tessier_> title Xen 2.0 / XenLinux 2.6.11
04:21 < tessier_>   kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=131072
04:21 < tessier_>   module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-xen0 root=/dev/sda4 ro console=tty0
04:21 < tessier_> You have to remove the /boot
04:28 < tessier_> ugh...now it loads xen, loads the kernel, then it displays a bunch of stuff and automatically reboots before I can see what happened.
04:42 < crisen> you may need to allocate less memory to dom0_mem in grub
04:42 < crisen> how much physical ram do you have?
04:48 < tessier_> 1G
05:25 < tessier_> Does xen have any problem with / on lvm?
05:26 < tessier_> I still can't get this thing to boot properly
05:26 < tessier_> I see it loads the ethernet module, then tries to activate the volume groups...
05:26 < tessier_> I can't tell what it does after that. Flashes something then immediately reboots
05:29 < tessier_> Maybe some problem with creating root device
05:46 < tessier_> http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-05/msg00237.html
05:46 < tessier_> This is the same problem I seem to be having
05:46 < tessier_> As usual, no reply
05:47 < Tv> tessier: root on lvm is irrelevant to xen
05:48 < Tv> tessier: but you should first make root on lvm work on native linux
05:48 < tessier_> It works fine on native linux
05:48 < Tv> tessier: and not blame xen
05:48 < tessier_> RHEL4
05:48 < tessier_> It installed that way.
05:48 < tessier_> I'm not blaming xen. I'm sure I've got something hosed up somewhere.
05:48 < tessier_> Just trying to figure out what.
05:48 < Tv> tessier: activating xen is comparable to just switching to another kernel
05:48 < tessier_> Indeed.
05:48 < tessier_> However, I am using the xen binary distribution
05:49 < tessier_> Perhaps it did not come with lvm enabled? Although I am using the same thing on my laptop which has lvm so I think it must...
05:49 < Tv> well, maybe your redhat kernel was patched to oblivion
05:49 < Tv> and your setup ass-u-mes the patches exist
05:49 < Tv> e.g. mount root fs by label
05:49 < tessier_> It is not mounting the root fs by label, I checked taht
05:49 < tessier_>         module /vmlinuz-2.6.10-xen0 root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 ro console=tty0
05:50 < tessier_> /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /                       ext3    defaults        1 1
05:50 < Tv> use noreboot to disable the autoreboot
05:50 < tessier_> ah!
05:50 < tessier_> hmm.... LABEL=/boot             /boot                   ext3    defaults        1 2

05:52 < Tv> mounting boot is pretty much irrelevant to booting
06:13 -!- yarihm [~yarihm@217-162-204-252.dclient.hispeed.ch] has joined #xen
06:16 < tessier_> Well, I'm done for now. No success.
06:16 < tessier_> I have it working on my laptop though which is very similar in setup.
06:16 < tessier_> I'll have to bring it down to the office and compare the setups I guess.
06:17 < tessier_> hmm...just noticed it failed to load the dm-snapshot.ko module...

06:28 < pwagland> jonmason: I guess you are probably gone by now :-)
06:30 < pwagland> jonmason: I will leave this here, just in case you do read the logs :-)
06:30 < pwagland> jonmason: The way that I broke VIF was by shutting down one of my Xen instances
06:31 < pwagland> jonmason: It does not always happen, but about 1/3 on my current setup.
06:32 < pwagland> jonmason: I will try to join the mailing list and put some more information over there.

17:28 < muadda> is there a french channel for xen ?
17:57 < riel> what do you mean by "official" ? ;)
17:58 < muadda> I mean "where all interested people go" ;)
18:00 < riel> this'd be it
18:52 < muadda> I've just tried the xen demo cd with qemu. It's great ;)
