initscripts, xen and bonding
by Axel Thimm
Hi,
I'm having a hard time getting bonding to work on FC5t3. It looks like
the bond0 interface bond0 is renamed to pbond0 by xen [*] and the
enslaving does not work anymore then. It works if I log on the
terminal and ifenslave the devices to pbond0 instead of bond0 after
the boot process has finished.
But I want this to be handled automatically during reboots, so I tried
assigning the bonding slaves to pbond0 as a master in the
ifcfg-eth{0,1} scripts, but that doesn't work.
What is causing the bond0 rename and should this renaming be
considered by initscript? Is this a user error or should I file this
against bugzilla? xen or initscripts?
Thanks!
[*] The only reference I found was a Japanese site and google's
translation of it.

Simple testing results for Xen and VMX on FC5-test2.
by You, Yongkang
Hi all,
I have done a simple checking for Xen and VMX on FC5-test2. Basically, I can create VMX on FC5-test2 IA32. But FC5-test2 IA32e (x86-64) doesn't provide Xen and Xen0 kernel, so didn't do Xen and VMX testing for it.
Beside of testing Xen and VMX, I also found some issues about installation, which I have updated the bug #179078 as a NB. The following is the testing results only for Xen and VMX.
=========================
1. *** IA32E hasn't RPMS about Xen hypervisor and Xen0/XenU kernels. __FAIL__
2. *** In order to boot up IA32 Xen0, I have to add pci=noacpi as the boot
parameters of Xen0 kernel, or system will hang when initial PCI. I don't know if it is only related to my Machine. __FAIL__
3. After install IA32 Xen RPMs, I can see /boot/grub/grub.conf has been changed
with Xen kernels. __PASS__
4. *** /usr/lib/xen/boot/vmxloader isn't in the RPM package, so VMX Guest
couldn't be created. I suspected build system hasn't bcc, it is from DEV86
package. __FAIL__
5. After copy a useable vmxloader to the destination, IA32 VMX Guest can be
created successfully! __PASS__
6. VMX has good network connection and Xwindows started. __PASS__
7. XenU can be created and works well. __PASS__
8. Couldn't get Xen Changeset by "xm info" or "xm dmesg".
9. The new kernel names of Xen/Xen0/XenU seemed a little confused. E.g. the Xen0 name is like vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.29_FC5hypervisor. I thought hypervisor is for Xen.gz. Xen0 is the Service OS.
==========================
Any comments please let me know. But I will have 8 days holiday from tomorrow, so emails reply might be slow and occasional.
[FYI] We are planning to do more testing for FC5-test3.
Best Regards,
Yongkang (Kangkang) 永康

can't boot xen kernel
by Justin Conover
I can't boot the kernel-xen-hypervisor on one of my systems. It bombs out
when it wants to mount my /home

boots fine.

minor Xorg screen corruption on radeon under xen dom0
by Andy Burns
I'm pleased to see xen for x86_64 recently :-)
Under rawhide kernel 1955 with just a dom0 running I often see minor
xorg screen corruption, usually showing as a series of solid/dashed red
lines running across most of the top gnome-panel, this didn't happen
when booted without xen. also if the machien was left for half a day or
so it wouldn't wake ut of screen saver and needed CTRL-ALT-BKSP to
kill/restart xorg.
I've upgraded to kernel 1977 today and not seen it so far, and will
bugzilla it if it happens again, just a quick "anyone else seen this"
for now?
I presume that any issue like this should be reported against xen not
against xorg-drv-ati?

Request for comments: Xen on centrino thinkpads
by Kevin Verma
Hello,
Some times ago, some where I had read that Xen does not work on
centrino based thinkpads, is that still true ?
I had tried to run xen on my thinkpad r50e having a centrino processor
over FC4 but xen-hypervisor never booted succesfuly.
I will be very much thankful for any of yours inputs to my questions above.
Thanks for reading,

Hello,
I'm sending an update, based on some advices I have changed my grub.conf:
title Fedora Core (2.6.15-1.1977_FC5hypervisor )
root (hd0,6)
kernel /boot/xen.gz-2.6.15-1.1977_FC5 com1=1200,8n1 console=com1,vga sync_console noreboot
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.1977_FC5hypervisor ro root=/dev/VolGroup01/LogVol00 init 3 com1=1200,8n1 console=com1,vga sync_console noreboot
module /boot/initrd-2.6.15-1.1977_FC5hypervisor.img
So I have changed speed of display to synchronise with com port to 1200 bauds and noreboot option so I can read last messages.
XEN has loaded fine, but domain0 was not able to mount some drives:
Here are some error messages:
<cut>
Red Hat nash version 5.0.28
Mounting proc filesystem
Mounting sysfs filesystem
Creating /dev
Creating initial device nodes
mknod: failed to create /dev/ram0 file exists ! first error message I have noticed
mknod: failed to create /dev/ram1 file exists
<cut>
Creating block device node

mount: could not find filesystem /dev/root
Setuproot: mouting /dev failed: No such file or directory
Setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory
Setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory
<cut>
Do you have any idea where the problem is?
I can provide more detailed log if somebody is interested...
Do you think I should open bugzilla ticket?
Thank you very much for an advice,
Cheers,

Some other problems I found:
When I upgraded from FC4 to FC5 test3 I did not see any option to install XEN from DVD (I have selected upgrade not new install in anaconda).
Also entries for FC4 kernel were deleted from my grub.conf and original grub.conf was not saved.

suse guest on fc5 host
by Darren Birkett
OK I'm probably missing something fairly important in my understanding, but
I can't see how a guest for another OS can get installed/run on a different
host system. I am currently experimenting on a test box, where I have the
latest fc5t3 hypervisor kernel running, and 3 fc5t3 guests running.
Installing and configuring these guests was easy with the
xenguest-install.py script/anaconda.
I want to try getting a SuSE 10 guest running under my fedora host system,
but don't really know how. I know this is a fedora list but any pointers
would be appreciated. I've seen the images downloadable from
jailtime.org(not SuSE however), but where would I get the guest
kernels for these
images?
Thanks
