Hi xen-tools-discuss list. I'm gettin some errors trying to install centos-5 in a vm. Dom0 machine is Debian squeeze 64.<br><br>I contacted Steve from Debian team asking about rinse and he told me to ask you.<br><br>Is there another way to install centos-5 in a vm avoiding internet connections?<br>
<br>I'm getting some errors like this:<br><br><<<br># xen-create-image --hostname piccolo --ip 10.0.0.3<br><br>Setting up root password<br>Generating a password for the new guest.<br>Failed to find /etc/passwd in the install.<br>
All done<br><br>Installation Summary<br>---------------------<br>Hostname : piccolo<br>Distribution : centos-5<br>IP-Address(es) : 10.0.0.3<br>RSA Fingerprint : N/A<br>Root Password : N/A<br>>><br><br>So i haven't root pass, and when i log to the centos system, via chroot, i haven't the passwd command!<br>
# passwd <- missing<br><br><br>I think its a fail of rinse or a bad internet connection.<br><br>Any idea?<br><br>Regards!<br><br>PD: I'm a student from spain.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>> I'm using the official repository from Centos-5, but i thing something is<br>

Sadly not. xen-tools lets you install from an existing copy, a<br>
tarball, or via rinse. But not from CD-ROM.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately I'm no longer involved with xen-tools development<br>
and support - instead it has been taken over by another group.<br>
