Creating a Windws XP virtual machine Fedora 11

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi
I am trying to create a virtual machine and install Windows XP. I am using Fedora 11.The system was last fully patched about an hour ago.

selinux is disabled.

root@pc32 ~]# uname -a
Linux x.com 2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.i686.PAE #1 SMP Mon Aug 24 17:16:21 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

When booting the virtual machine for the first time, the VM hangs with: "Booting from hard disk". Nothing else appears.

When I shutdown the VM /var/log/messages has:
Sep  2 03:42:44 pc32 libvirtd: 03:42:44.714: error : operation failed: could not query memory balloon allocation

... and a dialogue box appears with the same message: here is the trace:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 507, in shutdown_domain vm.shutdown()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 566, in shutdown self._update_status()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 217, in _update_status info = self.vm.info()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 523, in info
    if ret is None: raise libvirtError ('virDomainGetInfo() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: operation failed: could not query memory balloon allocation

Thanks,
James Harrison
