Cannot boot from iso file xen 4.1.3

Hi all,

I’ve just installed a SLES11-SP2 with xen and I try to install a new virtual machine from an iso file, but I cannot make the vm boot from the iso file.
The console just says :

[...] Booting from CD-Rom... 4480MB medium detected

Everything is stucked…

I’ve got errors in the log files but googling them did not give me any answer

I really can’t see what I am doing wrong, as I just follow basic instructions…
Googling leads me to a possible bug in xen fixed between 4.1.1 and 4.2 : http://old-list-archives.xen.org/xen-users/2011-07/msg00267.html
But I’m not sure i am on the good way and not certain how to upgrade xen to 4.2 since the distro only gives me 4.1.3 version

Any help would be very appreciated…

Bellow is the different config files and logs

Hi,

I finally found where I were wrong…
I just tried to boot on a ia64 iso image instead of an amd64 iso image. If I understands well, Linux amd64 refers to x86_64 architectures, not only AMD processors but also Intel 64 x86/64 bits processors. ia64 only refers to itanium 64 bits architecture, my mistake…

Note that I still have the same logs with the same errors, but everything is running correctly now.
Regards,

Olivier

Hi Olivier,

thanks for reporting back! It’ll at least save someone from further digging into the details, and others from not checking their sources when hitting the same problem :slight_smile:

With regards,
Jens

You are correct as far as most of the Linux community is concerned. i.e., FreeBSD and some Linux distributions uses a slightly different naming system, IIRC - i586, i686, x86_64, etc - but ia64 always refers to the Itanium artchitecture.
