[Bug 915963] New: Installing a 32bit guest - where are vmlinuz-xen and initrd-xen?
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=915963 Bug ID: 915963 Summary: Installing a 32bit guest - where are vmlinuz-xen and initrd-xen? Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Xen Assignee: jdouglas@suse.com Reporter: per@computer.org QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- In 13.1, both vmlinuz-xen and initrd-xen can be found here: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.1/repo/oss/boot/i386/ In 13.2, they're no longer there? http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.2/repo/oss/boot/i386/ Where have they gone? thanks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The 13.2 32bit media shipped without these files and they will not remaster the media once it has shipped.
As a work around you may be able to create a network install source and place the Xen kernel/initrd in the boot/i386 directory (vmlinuz-xen and initrd-xen). You will likely have to generate the initrd-xen.
Can you point me to where to get hold of vmlinuz-xen/initrd-xen - rebuilding the initrd shouldn't be a big deal. Just to double check - I was thinking of installing 13.1, then dup'ing to 13.2, is this likely to work or not? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

From the installation source grab the kernel-xen RPM. You can then extract boot/vmlinuz-xen from the RPM. Use a command like, 'rpm2cpio kernel-xen-3.16.6-2.1.x86_64.rpm | cpio -ivd'
Just to double check - I was thinking of installing 13.1, then dup'ing to 13.2, is this likely to work or not?
Yes, you should be able to upgrade a 13.1 VM to 13.2. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
