Hello again!
I'm running Fedora 11 with 2.6.31-rc6 pv_ops Xen dom0 kernel and Xen 3.4.1. I'm able to succesfully install Fedora 11 and CentOS 5.3 PV guests with virt-install.
I just tried installing Fedora rawhide (F12) guest with virt-install, and the installation fails.
# virt-install --debug -n test3vm -r 512 --vcpus=1 -f /dev/vg_dom0test/test3vm --vnc -p -l "ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os"
Log of the virt-install output available here: http://pasik.reaktio.net/fedora/virt-install-log-rawhide-on-f11.txt
Basicly it creates the domain, but it fails to start:
# xm list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 986 2 r----- 595.1 test3vm 512 1 0.0
and virt-install gives these errors:
libvir: Xen error : Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByID libvir: Xen error : Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByName
Those are printed repeatedly over and over again.. until I cancel the installation with ctrl+c.
Any ideas how to debug that?
Some more debug info ("xm list --long test3vm" and "xenstore-ls") available from here: http://pasik.reaktio.net/fedora/virt-install-rawhide-on-f11-debuginfo.txt

Can you file a bug about this - even though Dom0 kernels aren't in F12, we have the Xen userspace & libvirt driver present & should make sure those do actually work.
Include the data from the 2 URLs you have here, and also the xend.log file

OK. That's good to know. I'll play with it a bit more today.

I just tried without virt-install:

# xm create -f test3vm.cfg -c Using config file "./test3vm.cfg". Error: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'xc_dom_find_loader: no loader found\n')
So same error.

OK, so the problem is the rawhide kernel is LZMA compressed. Wasn't this changed back to GZIP earlier?

Thanks for pointing that out, see:

It got disabled on a branch for the F12 Alpha release, but never got disabled on the devel/ branch. Should be fixed now.

Testing Chris's patch would certainly be a good idea. LZMA will come back again in Fedora 13, so we should make sure to have the patch in good shape by then

I actually already 'ported' the patch to Xen 3.4.1 and made sure it compiles OK. I've included it (and extra gcc 4.4.0 compilefix) to this email, and also sent them to xen-devel.
atm I'm trying to make the patch work/apply with Fedora xen-3.4.1-1 src.rpm .. and sorting out some fedora/rpm specific compilation failure..

Here's updated patch that actually works. I added it to xen-3.4.1-1.src.rpm and verified the resulting rpms are able to boot lzma compressed kernels.
It's still not final patch, since the stubdom/pvgrub bzip2/lzma support is not yet included in this patch (until the proper method for Makefile hacks is determined upstream).

Could you remind F12 rawhide location on the Net for --location key for virt-install command line to test on 64-bit .

It got disabled on a branch for the F12 Alpha release, but never got disabled on the devel/ branch. Should be fixed now.
Thanks. Now I'll just wait for the next kernel build.. :)
(or try applying the patch Chris sent to support BZIP2 and LZMA for Xen PV bootloader).
Testing Chris's patch would certainly be a good idea. LZMA will come back again in Fedora 13, so we should make sure to have the patch in good shape by then
I actually already 'ported' the patch to Xen 3.4.1 and made sure it compiles OK. I've included it (and extra gcc 4.4.0 compilefix) to this email, and also sent them to xen-devel.
atm I'm trying to make the patch work/apply with Fedora xen-3.4.1-1 src.rpm .. and sorting out some fedora/rpm specific compilation failure..
Here's updated patch that actually works. I added it to xen-3.4.1-1.src.rpm and verified the resulting rpms are able to boot lzma compressed kernels.
It's still not final patch, since the stubdom/pvgrub bzip2/lzma support is not yet included in this patch (until the proper method for Makefile hacks is determined upstream).

OK, so the problem is the rawhide kernel is LZMA compressed. Wasn't this changed back to GZIP earlier?

Virt-viewer hangs with message "Waiting for guest domain to be created"
Check "xm log" - for me the guest crashes immediately.
This is a known bug in F12/rawhide kernel.

Hello again!
I'm running Fedora 11 with 2.6.31-rc6 pv_ops Xen dom0 kernel and Xen 3.4.1. I'm able to succesfully install Fedora 11 and CentOS 5.3 PV guests with virt-install.
I just tried installing Fedora rawhide (F12) guest with virt-install, and the installation fails.
# virt-install --debug -n test3vm -r 512 --vcpus=1 -f /dev/vg_dom0test/test3vm --vnc -p -l "ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os"
Log of the virt-install output available here: http://pasik.reaktio.net/fedora/virt-install-log-rawhide-on-f11.txt
Basicly it creates the domain, but it fails to start:
# xm list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 986 2 r----- 595.1 test3vm 512 1 0.0
and virt-install gives these errors:
libvir: Xen error : Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByID libvir: Xen error : Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByName
Those are printed repeatedly over and over again.. until I cancel the installation with ctrl+c.
This message

Back to this issue after the LZMA stuff was sorted out :)
You're right.. those errors are coming from virt-viewer:
# virt-viewer foo-bar-non-existing-domain libvir: Xen error : Domain not found: xenUnifiedDomainLookupByName
Btw there's a typo in the error msg;)
The actual problem seems to be this:
[2009-08-23 20:26:51 1046] INFO (XendDomain:1180) Domain test3vm (9) unpaused. [2009-08-23 20:26:51 1046] WARNING (XendDomainInfo:1878) Domain has crashed: name=test3vm id=9.
So the rawhide/F12 kernel crashes immediately.. nothing on the console(s).
Any ideas? I guess this is related to the other known problems with the 2.6.31 kernel as PV domU?
