Hello everyone, i am using fedora 7 and tried to run the xen images available at jailtime.org site and was able to start the os but it stops after the following log and will not proceed any further. The state in virt-manager shows its running but the console stops after the following.
Can anyone tell me whats the problem. Thanks in advance.



Try to Add the following line the guest config file:

extra="xencons=tty"
 
Best Regards,

Thanks Todd i tried that but it the problem was not solved these are the last few lines after adding that..


Since the errors are dealing with irqs, one thing might be to try using noirqbalance.

I haven't used it much, but you could try adding noirqbalance to your xen hypervisor (kernel) command line in grub.

It might be a general linux command line option that you could add in extra of your domU or even for the dom0 kernel, but I am not sure about the later two.
