    section 3.2

    I can boot up into the master (think you also call this dom) xen image.

    So everything working so far. The only difference i had to make to configs was that am using vmlinux-2.6.18.

    command i am running:
    cat /etc/xen/baseimage
    cat /var/log/xen/xen.log
    cat /boot/grub/menu.list
    Thanks

    yes tried that but still same problem

    This is what i wrote to xen team but no response yet.

    Hey all

    i have created a basefile and am doing xm create -c /etc/xen/baseimage and getting this error Error: (22, 'Invalid argument'). Been told it might be to do with kernel version but not sure what version i have or what to use or what version is loading or how to test this?

    I went by this tutorial
    http://www.howtoforge.com/xen_3.0_ubuntu_dapper_drake
    Just changing versions that where there.
    and bit of this
    http://www.howtoforge.com/debian_sarge_xen_3.0.3_p4

    can anyone help me?

    Base image file:
    # -*- mode: python; -*-
    kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6"
    ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-xen"
    memory = 128
    name = "baseimage"
    vif = ['bridge=xenbr0']
    disk = ['file:/xen-images/guest_base.img,hda1,w','file:/xen-images/guest_base-swap.img,hdb1,w']
    hostname = "baseimage"
    root = "/dev/hda1"
    extra = "4"

    Even I am getting the same error,
    Error: (22, 'Invalid argument')

    and the xend.log file also contains a similar log message.

    I dont think there is any problem with the configuration file, as I was able to start a guest domain with a similar config file in another Fedora machine.
