Hi Wei-Ren & All, I have tried to upgrade qemu, but it looks so hard, my guest domain can't boot up with the new "qemu 1.0.1", and i'm not sure if I make a wrong usage or something else.
Cos I don't know how to tell xend to use "qemu-1.0.1" to replace it's "qemu-dm", so I try to find out some other way, when I see "qemu" can directly boot up a guest use xen hypercall in the man page, then I'm going to try it, but it told this can't be used with xend, so i set up a new Ubuntu 11.10 and install Xen 4.1.2 from source code and boot to it, that means no xend. After compiled "qemu-1.0.1" with --enable-xen option and installed it, I launched the command line to boot my guest domain: #qemu-system-x86_64 -vnc 0.0.0.0:0 -boot c -serial pipe:/tmp/bsd-serial -net none -M pc -hda /wei/dev/FreeBSD9.0.img -xen-create -xen-domid 1 is it right? System hang during boot up after printed out about 50% of successful boot up message, I have compared it with before successfully boot up message, i found it maybe hanging when try to recognize the disk or loading PV driver for disk, as i know, xend use "qemu-dm 0.10.2" to launch a guest while it looks "qemu-1.0.1" used a totally different way. I wonder if "qemu-dm" is a similar thing with "qemu" itself? looks qemu support a lot thing? I have searched for the difference between them but looks no answer, Does anyone know this? Is there somebody have tried to replace or upgrade "qemu-dm" successfully? or any other idea will be appreciated a lot.
