[Libguestfs] libguestfs error

[abhishek jain]

Hi Rich

One more quiry.

When I'm trying to execute the binary on the powerpc ubuntu, it gives
/usr/bin/supermin error.However it works fine on x86 ubuntu.Below are the
logs...

supermin: failed to find a suitable kernel (host_cpu=powerpc64).

I looked for kernels in /boot and modules in /lib/modules.

If this is a Xen guest, and you only have Xen domU kernels
installed, try installing a fullvirt kernel (only for
supermin use, you shouldn't boot the Xen guest with it).
libguestfs: error: /usr/bin/supermin exited with error status 1, see debug
messages above
libguestfs-test-tool: failed to launch appliance
libguestfs: closing guestfs handle 0x10016848 (state 0)
libguestfs: command: run: rm
libguestfs: command: run: \ -rf /tmp/libguestfsvnUxG2



Also while compiling libguesfs for powerpc ubuntu,it required
supermin_5.1.8-2_powerpc.deb package .

Please help regarding this.


Thanks
