Xen 3.3 Winxp Domu doesn't work
Hi, I'm trying to make Xen 3.3 work in NetBSD 6.1.4 (Xen3_DOM0) in order to virtualize Windows XP for a school project. I have the config file created and the Dom0 configured, however, when I do 'xm create /usr/pkg/etc/xen/win01' the output is:
May 10 18:14:56 xenbackendd[938]: failed to read /local/domain/0/backend/vfb/8/0/script (no such file or directory) vnd0: unable to open device, error = 16 xbd backend: attach device vnd0d (size 8388608) for domain 8 vnd1: unable to open device, error = 16 xbd backend: attach device vnd1d (size 1414700) for domain 8 May 10 18:14:56 xenbackendd[938] Failed to read /local/domain/0/device-model/8/script (no such file or directory) Started domain win01 # tap0: detached May 10 18:14:56 xenbackendd[938] Failed to read /local/domain/0/backend/console/8/0/script (no such file or directory) May 10 18:14:56 xenbackendd[938] Failed to read /local/domain/0/backend/vfb/8/0/script (no such file or directory) xbd backend: detach device vnd0d for domain 8 xbd backend: detach device vnd1d for domain 8 After this, I do 'xm list' and there is only the Dom0, so the Dom1 is not created. Does anybody know what should I change in order to avoid the domain crash? My config file is: Kernel = "usr/pkg/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" Builder='hvm' Memory = 1024 Name = "win01" Vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=bridge0' ] Disk['file:/home/xen/winxp.img,ioemu:hda,w','file:/home/xen/winxp.iso,ioemu:hdb:cdrom,r', ] Vnc=1 Vncconsole=1 boot='c' vncdisplay=0 vncunused=0 vncpasswd='password' Device_model= '/usr/pkg/libexec/qemu-dm' Usbdevice='tablet' usb=1 The /etc/rc.conf file has: XEND=YES XENBACKENDD=YES I have already downloaded a Windows Xp iso and saved it into /home/xen I dont have much knowledge on how to use NetBSD and Xen so any kind of help will be appreciated. Best regards, Agustin |

Is the configuration file you provided a copy/paste or a transcription?
If it's a copy/paste, you have a number of errors, including capitalization of many/most of the variable names. You also lack a equals sign between in the 'disk' definition. Are the variables in /etc/rc.conf in lowercase or uppercase? They should be lowercase (but your error messages suggest xenbackendd is running...) |

The attached file, 'feaux.conf' is a working Windows XP configuration, with the disk image in a file.
I just started it on my Xen 3.3 instance to verify that it still works. |

I tried with your config file and it worked perfectly, thank you very much!
