What do you mean syntax errors? Can you give an exact virt-install command line that failed for you? Your example below includes equals signs: > And the install source can't be a directory--it > has to be a ISO image. For HVM installs, you do need to install from ISO yes. You want to use -c not --location for HVM. As it happens, though, you're installing Nevada 79b - don't install it as HVM, use paravirt. john _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
