Bug#389836: [Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#389836: xen-hypervisor-3.0-unstable-1-amd64: HVM domU won't start

[Bin Tian]

I found the right syntax of HVM cdrom/floppy configuration in xensource list. You can find it in the thread http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2006-08/msg00369.html It should be written as following. disk = [ 'file:/small/xen-disks/debian/debian.img,hda,w','file:/small/xen-disks/ debian/swap.img,hdb,w','file:/home/sparrow/PlanetLab-BootCD-3.3.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ,'file:/home/sparrow/boot,fda:floppy,r' ] My HVM domU works again. Thanks a lot! ;) Best regards, BinTian Bastian Blank wrote: On Thu, Sep 28, 2006 at 02:51:48PM +0800, Bin Tian wrote: I find that the qemu-ifup is very simple, so I make a copy of qemu-ifup in /etc/xen/ directory. This time, the domU started and I saw the boot screen of BIOS in vncviewer. But the BIOS said: CDROM boot failure code: 0002 Boot from CD-Rom failed. FATAL: Could not read from the boot disk. Please provide your _fixed_ version of the config. According to the template I shown you, the fda and cdrom parameters are not longer available. Bastian
