[Fedora-xen] FC5 Xen Guest install failed

[Guillaume Menguy]

Thank you for your answer.
But I already tried this without success. Looks more like a guest root
filesystem problem i guess.

Howdy -

I had a similar problem and fixed it by changing '-l http://sitename' to '-l
http://1.2.3.4' (i.e., the IP address for sitename).  It was almost like the
installer couldn't look up sitename once the networking was started, and
failed badly as a result.

Hi,
 
Strictly following the FedoraXenQuickstartFC5 wiki
(http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstartFC5
<http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstartFC5> ), I get blocked
at the following step :
 
/usr/sbin/xenguest-install.py -n fc5template -f /xenimg/fc5template -s 6 -r
512 -l http://xen1
The installation starts and a few seconds after the network configuration, I
get :
 
loader received SIGSEGV!.  Backtrace:

you may safely reboot your system
If your install has exited, you can restart your guest by running
'xm create -c fc5template'.  Otherwise, you can reconnect to the console
by running 'xm console fc5template'

xend.log says :
...

I tried on another server with a new install : same problem. Server has 2 Gb
RAM and enouth disk space.
Thanks for any help.
