Hello,

in the last days I've built Xenclient and successfully created a Windows VM
according to
Takas mail here:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2009-06/msg00276.html

Now I was wondering what it takes to set up a paravirtualized VM in
Xenclient.
I tried to boot my Debian Lenny system (with Xen [2.6.26-1-xen-686] kernel /
initrd and Xenclient kernel / initramfs) as a pv VM without much success.
It is initalised in paused state and unpausing it won't help (it gets into
running state but top shows completly idle CPU).

I cannot find any error in the /tmp/xenvm-debug logfile so far:
[20090729 06:27:40.956|info|xenvm] stale socket left by previous xenvm.

Is there a possibility to fetch the log of the boot process of a
paravirtualised guest VM?

Thanks

Hi,

You need to start xenconsoled -i &, then reboot your guest and you
should be able to get to the console using /usr/lib/xen/bin/xenconsole

Hi Kornelius,

try setting in your config file:
vnc = -1

Your log seems to indicate that the toolstack is waiting for 
vncterm-wrapper to do something with a timeout of 1200 seconds, but 
probably never does it.

Sorry for the triple post, it seems my messages took a really long route.

The vnc = -1 parameter helped to get the VM directly into running state and
xenconsole worked quite well. I've got a paravirtualized VM running.

Thanks for the help.
