The problem is that the Xen driver expects the OS type to be 'linux' but the capabilities XML is advertising the OS type as 'xen'. Technically 'xen' is the correct value, since its refering to a guest ABI & the ABI is xen, not linux. Since we can't break XML semantics we have to stick with 'linux'. Thus I've added a workaround to make virt-install still use 'linux' if talking to the Xen driver.
Can we not make the Xen driver accept either?
It does accept either now - in fact it accepts anything which isn't 'hvm' for the paravirt case. I changed virt-install though so that it is compat with libvirt < 0.4.1, and when generating XML it'll still use 'linux' Dan. -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, Boston -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
