Hi All
I'm trying to fully virtualise an old RH7.3 server on EL5. The steps I
went through went pretty much:
- Install EL5 (@base and @virtualisation only)
- Make cpio image of old server
- Create LV for old server image on EL5 server
- Expand cpio image into new LV on new server
- Create /etc/xen/rh73 file:
---
import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search('64', arch):
arch_libdir = 'lib64'
else:
arch_libdir = 'lib'
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 1024
shadow_memory = 8
name = "rh73"
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ]
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/rootvg/rh73,sda1,w' ]
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot = 'restart'
on_crash = 'preserve'
device_model = '/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
sdl=1
vnc=0
vncpasswd=''
stdvga=0
serial='pty'
---
When I run 'xm create rh73' I get aPlex86/Bochs window flash up briefly
saying:
---
Boot from Hard Disk 0 failed
FATAL: Could not read the boot disk
---
Any ideas on this? I'm stumped.
Thanks
