I've got to move an old Linux OS to a virtual machine. I'm using Debian Lenny as a host. The guest is Suse 9.2, but I'm hoping you guys might have some advice for me. It uses a 2.6 kernel.
The physical machine had SCSI drives, and I have changed grub and fstab to reflect virtualbox's hardware (hda, instead of sda). I can boot into single user mode and go about my business, but after a certain amount of time it locks up hard. It doesn't seem to matter what I do, even running 'top' eventually gets it to lock up. Is there anything I've missed as far as telling the kernel and OS about my new (virtualized) hardware? I don't expect you guys to be Suse experts, obviously, but maybe somebody here has had a similar experience w/ Debian. In the past I've moved hard drives from one physical machine to another with very minimal fuss. This one has got me stumped, though. I'm in the process of subscribing to the OpenSuse mailing list... -Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
