[xenpreview-dev] bootargs warning/hang

[Manzer, Kirk]

I have a SLES10 with the latest changeset applied running on an INTEL VT
server (enabled).  I have successfully installed a Windows 2K3R2 vm, but
when trying to install a para-virtualized SLES10 VM through YaST it
installs the software, but on reboot to finish the installation the vm
hangs, xend hangs.  Cannot get a response from xm list or any other VM.
If I manually start the vm using the command line xm create vm1 -c it
returns the warning:

 

Warning: the bootentry option is depreciated.  Use bootargs and pass
-entry= directly.

 

Copy kernel /boot/vmlinuz-xenpae from hda2 to
/var/libxen/temp/vmlinux.<tmpname> for booting

 

 

The vm hangs at that point.  The current config file is: 

 

disk = [ 'file:/var/lib/xen/images/vm2/hda,hda,w',
'file:/mnt/SLES-10-i386-GMC.iso,hdb,r' ]

memory = 512

vcpus = 1

builder = 'linux'

name = 'vm2'

vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:d1:7a:91' ]

localtime = 0

on_poweroff = 'destroy'

on_reboot = 'restart'

on_crash = 'restart'

extra = ' TERM=xterm'

bootloader = '/usr/lib/xen/boot/domUloader.py'

bootentry = 'hda2:/boot/vmlinuz-xenpae,/boot/initrd-xenpae'
