Hi! I have the following problem: I have a server (CentOS 5.3 x86_64) on which I want to install a virtual Xen-machine (CentOS 5.3 x86_64), I ssh from my workstation (Centos 5.3 x86_64 .... do you see the pattern ;) ) to that server and start the virt-manager. I create a new Guest (Paravirtualiuzed) and point it to the server with the installation files (CentOS 5.3, but I already said that). The manager creates the disk image an then opens the Graphical console for installation. Sometime around the point where the installation program wants me to select the keyboard the graphical console it freezes. The server is completely dead (no console, no disk activity, no ping, only a reset will "repair" it) My question: am I doing something stupid? But I figured "They're all the same system, this must work" I don't want to play around with it too much as the server is also our file-server and people start complaining. So any hint will be greatly appreciated (otherwise I'll have to setup another machine for the guests) Bernhard -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- DI Bernhard F.W.
