Description Mike McGrath 2007-08-20 21:32:16 UTC

Description of problem:

When attempting to run:

virt-install -p -n publictest3 -r 1024 -f /dev/xenGuests/publictest3
--nographics -l  nfs:server:/path/  -x 'ip=10.0.0.1 netmask=255.255.255.0
gateway=10.0.0.2 dns=10.0.0.3 ks=http://myksserver/ks'

It loads up and freezes at:

XENBUS: Device with no driver: device/vbd/51712
XENBUS: Device with no driver: device/vif/0
drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device (rtc0)
Freeing unused kernel memory: 200k freed
Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 981k




Presently I'm trying to install rawhide in a xen guest on an x86_64 FC6 box:
xen-3.0.3-9.fc6
python-virtinst-0.98.0-1.fc6
2.6.19-1.2911.6.4.fc6xen

I'm not sure if this is a xen issue or not.  I'm actually seeing the same
behavior when trying to install an F7 instance.  I'm seeing it on multiple machines.

appending -x "console=tty0 console=xvc0" fixes this issue.  Riel says its a 
bug in the kernel that shipped with F7 but it still exists in rawhide it 
seems.

Comment 2 Mike McGrath 2007-08-30 03:16:13 UTC

Is this being fixed in rawhide?

Comment 3 Eduardo Habkost 2007-10-23 17:25:54 UTC

I have reported this as bug #348931.

Marking this as duplicate as the other ticket was referenced on changelog and 
contains the patch that was included for F-8.
