Trying to install Xen, but cannot get networking to work upon creating a new VM. Using this guide: http://www.howtoforge.org/paravirtualization-with-xen-on-centos-5.3-x86_64 See screenshot. It shows that, then it returns back to main tcp/ip configure screen again. Nothing else happens. Tried this method, still does not work. Code: virt-install -n vm01 -r 256 -p --os-type=linux --os-variant=rhel5 \ -f /vm/vm01.img -l [URL]http://wftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/centos/5.3/os/x86_64[/URL] \ --vcpus=1 -w bridge:xenbr0 -w bridge:xenbr1 --nographics --noautoconsole \ -x "ks=[URL]http://wftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/centos/5.3/os/x86_64[/URL] ksdevice=eth1 ip=xxx.xxx.70.212 netmask=255.255.255.248 \ gateway=xxx.xxx.70.211 dns=PRI-DNS-IP,SEC-DNS-IP" Automatic DHCP never works. If I try manual config: note: only here in my post am I actually putting "xxx" in the IP for privacy reasons only. The 70.212 is the main server IP that I ssh into. See 2nd screenshot for error. Same thing with various valid mirrors I tried. http://i40.tinypic.com/64fqyh.png This is my ifcfg-eth0 info:
Great! That works, (results: tinypaste.com/a6ba0) but now a new problem. I entered the vm01 console via this command: "xm console vm01 " and all I see is this screen. tinypic.com/r/k16fjq/5 Another error: tinypaste.com/e5a219f
