Hello community,

I encountered an error while installing CentOS as a domU on Xen. The

DomU

...

paused at boot up and failed with messages: "eth0: no IPv6 routers present". I've already attached a full screenshot. Can anyone tell me what is happening here?

Thanks,

The real issue appears to be the message before

"xvda: unknown partition table"

You will have to provide details about your system and setup to get help.

Alexander

Thanks for pinpointing the issue, here is the command line use for domU installation:

virt-install -l http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/ -p -n cent5 -r 768 --vcpus=1 --disk=/srv/xen/mailserver.img --graphics vnc,listen=0.0.0.0,port=5901

Here is my kernel info: uname -a Linux XenTester 3.1.0-rc9+ #1 SMP Mon Mar 12 18:18:34 CDT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Anything else info needed?

Thanks,

I guess the disk info may be needed. Do you think the disk info has something to do with the error?

[root@XenTester su]# xm block-list cent5 Vdev BE handle state evt-ch ring-ref BE-path 51712 -1 0 -1 -1 -1 ??
