Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

using centos 4.3 ad guest: msg#00193

Subject: using centos 4.3 ad guest
Hi,

I have successfully installed Xen with fedora core 5 and i have installed a guest system running fedora core 5.

The guest is running without problems.

I'm now trying to install a guest based on centos 4.3.

i create the guest system using

xenguest-install.py and the process is like this:

What is the name of your virtual machine? centos
 How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256
What would you like to use as the disk (path)? /xen/centos What is the install location? http://mirror.fysik.dtu.dk/linux/centos/4.3/os/i386/
Invalid URL location given

but why does it give me an 'Invalid URL location given' error message?

I can see the URL in my browser and i can see the centos install tree.

i have tried with nfs also using my local centos install tree using:

nfs:miraculix:/usr/public/distributions/centos43_i386

but it fails.

if i use

nfs:miraculix:/usr/public/distributions/fedora5_i386

it woks perfectly and was the install tree i used for creating my first guest system.

im using the latest xen version.

hope someone can help me cause i'm pretty much stuck here and i don't see much point in using xen if i can only run guest systems based on fedora 5.

br
