I think that is your elxl0 card not having a GLDv3 driver On my build 81 system (where I'm using e1000g for my centOS install) [EMAIL PROTECTED] / $ dladm show-link e1000g0 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: e1000g0 rge0 type: non-vlan mtu: 1500 device: rge0 elxl0 type: legacy mtu: 1500 device: elxl0 Please note: apparently the format of dvladm command has changed in 85 see: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=217732&tstart=0 try dladm show-phys according to linked post. (can't test as havn't had time to go to build 81 yet) (this is in response to your comment at http://jameslegg.blogspot.com/2008/02/centos-5-dom0-out-of-thin-air.html) -- Cheers James (I havn't had time to move on from 81 recently so can't test) On 5 Apr 2008, at 19:57, Boris Derzhavets wrote: > bash-3.2# dladm show-link > LINK CLASS MTU STATE OVER > elxl0 phys 1500 unknown -- > bash-3.2# svccfg -s xend listprop|grep default-nic > config/default-nic astring elxl0 > Prepare to install:- > bash-3.2# ls -l > total 24021968 > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3876421632 Apr 5 14:21 f8.iso > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4442685440 Apr 5 13:59 RHEL51.iso > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3974103040 Apr 4 12:02 snv85.iso > bash-3.2# lofiadm -a /export/home/isos/RHEL51.iso > /dev/lofi/1 > bash-3.2# mount -o ro -F hsfs /dev/lofi/1 /mnt > bash-3.2# share -F nfs /mnt > ******************** > Run virt-install:- > ******************** > > bash-3.2# virt-install -n CentOS51 -r 512 --vcpus=1 --nographics -- > os-type=linux \ > -p -f /dev/zvol/dsk/vmpool/snv85-disk -l nfs:192.168.1.41:/mnt -d > > Starting install... > > libvir: Xen Daemon error : GET operation failed: > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Preparing mount at /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Acquiring file from /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat/Fedora > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Cannot find file Fedora > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Acquiring file from /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat/Server > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Cannot find file Server > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Acquiring file from /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat/RedHat > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Cannot find file RedHat > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Acquiring file from /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat/CentOS > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Found a directory > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Detected a CentOS distro > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:46:34 DEBUG Acquiring file from /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat/images/xen/vmlinuz > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:48:04 DEBUG Saved file to /var/lib/xen/ > virtinst-vmlinuz.g6ZzaX > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:48:04 DEBUG Acquiring file from /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat/images/xen/initrd.img > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:48:04 DEBUG Saved file to /var/lib/xen/ > virtinst-initrd.img.3f7zza > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:48:04 DEBUG Cleaning up mount at /var/lib/xen/ > virtinstmnt.-UNNat > > libvir: Xen Daemon error : GET operation failed: > > Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:48:04 DEBUG Creating guest from '<domain > type='xen'> > > <name>CentOS51</name> > > <currentMemory>524288</currentMemory> > > <memory>524288</memory> > > <uuid>0bc0af1a-7359-903e-1fcf-745172cd3942</uuid> > > <os> > > <type>linux</type> > > <kernel>/var/lib/xen/virtinst-vmlinuz.g6ZzaX</kernel> > > <initrd>/var/lib/xen/virtinst-initrd.img.3f7zza</ > initrd> > > <cmdline> method=nfs:192.168.1.41:/mnt</cmdline> > > </os> > > <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> > > <on_reboot>destroy</on_reboot> > > <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> > > <vcpu>1</vcpu> > > <devices> > > <disk type='block' device='disk'> > > <source dev='/dev/zvol/dsk/vmpool/snv85-disk'/> > > <target dev='xvda'/> > > </disk> > > > > <interface type='bridge'> > > <source bridge=''/> > > <mac address='00:16:3e:02:63:ff'/> > > </interface> > > > > > > </devices> > > </domain> > > ' > > libvir: Xen Daemon error : POST operation failed: (xend.err 'Device > 0 (vif) could not be connected.
