Sorry: I see in the xen howto "the HVM support (for later versions this is included in sysutils/xentools)." I had my first attempt at an HVM and failed. In order to try to test glib2/patch-ba myself, I tried to make a dragonfly domu: builder = "hvm" name = "dfly" vcpus = 1 memory = 512 disk = ['phy:/dev/mapper/vg0-dfly,hda,w', 'file:/store/iso/dfly-x86_64-3.4.3_REL.iso,cd0,r'] vif = ['mac=00:1e:8c:5e:52:c8,bridge=bridge0'] boot="d" but: # xl create -c dfly.cfg Parsing config from dfly.cfg libxl: error: libxl_create.c:437:libxl__domain_make: domain creation fail libxl: error: libxl_create.c:663:initiate_domain_create: cannot make domain: -3 libxl: error: libxl.c:1377:libxl__destroy_domid: non-existant domain -1 libxl: error: libxl.c:1341:domain_destroy_callback: unable to destroy guest with domid 4294967295 libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1171:domcreate_destruction_cb: unable to destroy domain 4294967295 following failed creation I have netbsd and debian domus working but without hvm... Presumably "hda" isn't much use to dragonfly, but the error looks worse than that... Cheers, Patrick
