hi,
i just tried booting my nv66 domU using pygrub as the bootloader, *and it just
worked*. very nice. i had assumed that the image py script was the only way to
boot the kernel, but that's not the case. now i no longer need to copy the
boot_archive back to the dom0's domU image directory when it's updated!
fwiw, my guest's py config file:
#
# solaris nv66
#
name = "solaris-11.nv66"
memory = 192
maxmem = 256
bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"
root = "/dev/dsk/c0d0s0"
disk = [ 'phy:sdb5,0,w' ]
vif = [ 'mac=00:1b:2c:3e:4d:5e, bridge=xenbr0' ]
# boot verbosely
extra = "/platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix -v"
# boot verbosely in single user mode.
#extra = "/platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix -vs"
# boot verbosely under kmdb.
#extra = "/platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix -vdk"
on_shutdown = "destroy"
on_reboot = "destroy"
on_crash = "destroy"
