[Xen-devel] Bug (Maybe?) with finding Xen Guest installation repository

["Tetsu Asaka" <tetsuichi.asaka@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello List!

Because with a friend's Ubuntu machine I can do a similar creation, I
think it's now maybe a bug.  I have also read that installing Fedora
and Redhat in this method is also successfull.

I have installed the very newest OpenSuse Version11 from the Factory
Repository.  It uses a quite new Xen Hypervisor,
"xen-3.2.1_16881_04-2"

And I have started the machine in the Xen Kernel

 uname -a
 Linux server 2.6.25.4-8-xen #1 SMP 2008-05-26 15:23:05 +0200 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Now I attempt to create a Guest domain, also OpenSuse.  I am using the
method with

xm create

The Test-configuration is the most simple I can make.  It is exactly only

 cat test.cfg
  name='test'
  builder='linux'
  kernel='/home/tetsu/test/vmlinuz-xen'
  ramdisk='/home/tetsu/test/initrd-xen'
  maxmem=1024
  memory=1024
  vcpus=1
  
extra='install=http://134.76.12.5/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source?device=eth0
hostip=192.168.1.10/24 gateway=192.168.1.1 nameserver=192.168.1.1'
  root='/dev/xvda1'
  disk=['phy:/dev/v2/test,xvda,w']
  vif=['mac=00:16:3E:01:01:01,bridge=xenTEST,vifname=vifTEST']
  vfb=['type=vnc,vncdisplay=1,vnclisten=127.0.0.1']
  on_crash='destroy'
  on_reboot='destroy'
  on_shutdown='destroy'

To install the Guest, I create it

 xm create -c test.cfg

In the VNC display of the output I see a "Red" Error message from the
Linuxrc program.

 Could not find the OpenSuse Repository.
 Activating manual setup program.

Following the advise I have read I check all the entries in the Manual
Linurc dialogue. When continuing, I see again another "Red" Error
message,

 No Repository Found.

It appears not to use corectly the Guest's interface, eth0?

But I see in the Domain 0 the interface is added at the bridge,

  brctl show
    bridge name bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
    xenTEST             8000.00504300415e       no              peth0
                                                        vifTEST

Is it a bug? Can someone help?

Thank you!
