I'm not able to install a guest OS. I give the following command on my Fedora 16 machine, running i686:
'virt-install --connect xen:/// --os-type linux \ -l http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/16/Fedora/i386/o... \ --ram 512 --disk /var/lib/libvirt/images/f16.img,size=4 --name F16 \ --graphic none --paravirt --virt-type=xen \ -x "serial console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200"'
I get the following output:
'Starting install... Retrieving file .treeinfo... | 1.8 kB 00:00 ... Retrieving file vmlinuz-PAE... | 7.9 MB 00:03 ... Retrieving file initrd-PAE.img... | 257 MB 01:47 ... Creating domain... | 0 B 00:04 Connected to domain F16 Escape character is ^] error: Unable to open stream for '(null)': Bad address
Domain installation still in progress. You can reconnect to the console to complete the installation process.'
I'm not able to reconnect. How can I solve this problem?
Thanks and regards, Lars

Can you provide output of that command with the --debug flag?
Thanks, Cole

Hm, you are using the wrong console. Should be 'console=hvc0' if you want to use the PV console with the PV guest.
I get the following output:

Thank you. I tried that, but got exactly the same error message. Do I miss some other parameters to virt-install?
