I am attempting to use the Learning Puppet VM [1] with Parallels Desktop 7 on a Mac (Snow Leopard).
Unfortunately, Parallels does not support OVF images, so I must try the VMX image. Parallels has the ability to convert VMware images, although I don't know if this works well. If I attempt to import the VMX image using Parallels, I run into two problems. I will include the screenshots on Google+ (See link [2]) 1. Parallels fails to detect the operating system in the VMX image. Please see the screenshot at [2]. Regardless, I went ahead with the import of this image and Parallels says the import was successful. 2. After importing the image, I boot the Virtual Machine. However, the OS is unable to find any of the LVM volume groups, and the the kernel panics. I am unsure if this is a problem with the VMX image, or if Parallels is doing something wrong. The main problem seems to be that LVM cannot create the volume group. I know this is a long shot, but I am hoping there are other Mac or Parallels users out there who have tried the Learning Puppet VM. Thank you for your help, -= Stefan [1] http://info.puppetlabs.com/download-learning-puppet-VM.html [2] https://plus.google.com/photos/103621378732713508804/albums/5746257600756103185 Hopefully link [2] works. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
