virt-install debug options only relate to host side
debugging. From your
description it sounds like the crashes is guest side, so you'd likely
need to set guest kenrel debug options - eg make it log to the serial
console at boot time so you see guest kernel messages
Thank you for getting back to me. I have been trying to figure
out how set the guest to log messages to the serial console.
I tried this command:
virt-install -n v1092 -r 512 --vcpus=1 --check-cpu --os-type=linux
--os-variant=ubuntuhardy -v --accelerate
-c /tmp/turnkey-lamp-2009.10-hardy-x86.iso
-f /var/lib/libvirt/images/v1092.img -s 15 -b br0
--nographics -x "console ttyS0"
When I do that, I get this output:
Starting install...
Creating domain...
Connected to domain v1092
Escape character is ^]
And then it just sits there doing nothing.
My guess is the host is connected to a serial port, but the
guest does not know to set its console to that port.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Neil
