I am using Xen with Dom0 on FreeBSD for months now and I didn't know where the qemu logs go - I was able to figure out the problem by staring at the configuration file for a long time. Therefore your question was very helpful also for me - thanks! Marcin smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
Re: Issue getting my first Xen domU up
Hi Roger. Thanks for that. Yes, tap not being there was the issue. And yes, the qemu-dm-titania.log would have been the place to look. I feel pretty stupid. It says: qemu-system-i386: -netdev type=tap,id=net0,ifname=xnb3.0-emu,script=no,downscript=no: could not open /dev/tap: No such file or directory Got it running now. Very much appreciated.

System is a new install. I'm following the instructions here: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/virtualization-host-xen.html My config file looks thus: builder = "hvm" name = "titania" memory = 8192 vcpus = 2 vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:11:11:21,bridge=bridge0' ] disk = [ '/dev/zvol/zroot/titania0,raw,hda,rw' ] vnc = 1 vnclisten = "0.0.0.0" serial = "pty" That seems like a valid configuration. Upon trying to create the domU, I think it's trying to tell me that it's got issues with the storage, but that may be a red herring as the qemu command seems to include the storage. Nevertheless, I have also tried with sda and messed around with qcow2 (that one didn't work, but probably due to my wrong incantation). Anyway here's the output from the above config file. It's indeed QEMU failing the start the problem here. Do you have the if_tap module loaded (`kldload if_tap`)? Can you provide the QEMU log, it should be in /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-titania.log.
