Mark, >>ah, right. I disable intrd and fmd?
So both damoens are not necessary and can be disabled? I already disabled them and the DomU works - but I'm not sure if the intrd daemon is necessary. >>you need to copy unix of out the ramdisk and use that. >>I separate all the embedded bits from the standard >>dom0 on my disk so I don't get confused.. The unix on the ramdisk is the same unix as in /platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix - or did I miss something? Anyway, I copied the file unix from the ramdisk into /boot/xvm/ and /boot/xvm/amd64 and the Dom0 still doesn't boot. regards Bernd Mark Johnson wrote: > > > Bernd Schemmer wrote: >> Hi Mark, >> >> There's only one open issue with a failed SMF service in the DomU. > > ah, right.
