[opensuse] creating xen machines

Hi all, I am having some trouble getting new xen virtual machines up and running. I have an openSUSE11.1 server running xen-kernel 2.6.27.37-0.1-xen (64b). There are 2 machines running since I have installed this server, and now I wanted to create a new xen-vm to test 11.2. If I create a virtual machine, pointing a disk location for the virtual harddisk, and using a url for installing the 11.2 version, all seems to go well, untill the vm reboots for the first time. After that I get a message like "kernel not found" and I end up with nothing. What am I missing? Someone have a good resource for xen on opensuse? I cannot remember how I managed to create the first 2 vm's on this machine, but they are running since then. Btw, I have to start them manually after every reboot of the dom0, regardless of the fact that I set them both up to boot when the server boots. -- L. de Braal BraHa Systems NL - Terneuzen T +31 115 649333 F +31 115 649444 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

We might have the same problem then. I am testing 11.2 atm, because I used one of the running machines, and did a zypper dup to get it upgraded to 11.2. That works, but still, the problem itself is not solved. And I would very much like to be able to make machines.
