How to debug Ubuntu 8.04 LTS guest crash during install?
by Neil Aggarwal 04 Nov '25

04 Nov '25

Hello: I am using kvm on a CentOS 5.4 server. I am trying to install the TunkeyLinux Core appliance found here: http://www.turnkeylinux.org/core I downloaded the ISO file from the web site. Then, I used this command to intall it: virt-install -n tkl-core -r 512 --vcpus=1 --check-cpu --os-type=linux --os-variant=ubuntuhardy -v --accelerate -c /tmp/turnkey-core-2009.10-hardy-x86.iso -f /var/lib/libvirt/images/tkl-core.img -s 15 -b br0 --vnc noautoconsole When I connect to the VNC console, I get the Turnkey linux options screen. I select Install to hard disk from there and it seems to start the install but crashes during the installer startup. This is repeatable so there has to be a way to debug it. I tried turning on the debug option for virt-install but that did not give me any useful info. Any ideas how to debug this? Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (281)846-8957, http://UnmeteredVPS.net/cpanel cPanel/WHM preinstalled on a virtual server for only $40/month!

Arp Flip Flops make machine inaccessible.

CentOS 5.5 Xen "standard" Xen Installation. I have two nics. I just put the second one to DHCP and modified the ifcfg-et01 and so far I am holding, but I am not confident. Prior they were sequential IP Addrs on same subnet. arpwatch has indicated flip flips. I can find no rhyme or reason to predict them. I know I missed I must have missed a step somewhere. I want to keep the traffic pinned to the physical ethXs by their Xen bridge assignation. Segregate traffic.

Power Management and dom0 cpus
by Ben M. 27 Jul '10

27 Jul '10

["Standard" CentOS 5.5 Xen Virtualization installation.] I'm setting up a new box on AMD Opteron platform. I'm doing some preliminary baselines (no domUs running) with an inline Watt/VA meter. It appears to enable full power management Xen dom0 must have all cpus by not limiting in kernel statement nor in xendconfig.sxp. In previous installations I cut them back to 1 or 2. The bonus of all cpus appears to be a 16% to 20% reduction in wattage/va consumption at idle. Pretty substantial when I consider that my electric utility rates have increased 75% (yep) in the past two years alone. My question is to anyone with experience with this is will I be seeing a significant performance hit on domU performance in either paravirtualized or fully virtualized guests (or both)?
