xend log file from attempt to install windows virtual machine
Well known problem upstream. Use for example QEmu to install, once installed then you can try using Xen to run your XP image. Daniel Created attachment 136918 [details]

second qemu-dm log from qemu built windows image built with qemu
Added the xend log file and the qemu-dm logs from a copy of a windows.img file I successfully built and ran with qemu. The image will start up, crash, restart, crash, and restart one more time before quiting completely. This same image runs for a very long time under qemu, but is understandibly slow. Fedora Core 5 and Fedora Core 6 are, as we're sure you've noticed, no longer test releases. We're cleaning up the bug database and making sure important bug reports filed against these test releases don't get lost. It would be helpful if you could test this issue with a released version of Fedora or with the latest development / test release. Thanks for your help and for your patience. [This is a bulk message for all open FC5/FC6 test release bugs. I'm adding myself to the CC list for each bug, so I'll see any comments you make after this and do my best to make sure every issue gets proper attention.] I was eventually able to create a Windows XP guest. I had to tweak the default virt-manager config file to make it work, but it works nicely now. So, do you think this should be closed as "UPSTREAM", or is it more "WORKSFORME"? Close as Upstream. It is now working with the latest stable patches from FC6. Actually, I'd call that "currentrelease". :) |
