xen-tools (4.2~rc1-1) unstable; urgency=low By default, xen-create-image now generates a random root password and displays it as plain text at the end of the DomU generation process. Use --genpass=0 and --passwd=1 to interactively set a root password without the password being displayed. -- Axel Beckert Tue, 03 Aug 2010 16:14:42 +0200 xen-tools (4.2~beta1-1) unstable; urgency=low If the DomU hangs with "Waiting for root file system" despite /dev/xvd* is used as disk device, adding "xen-blkfront" to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and runing "update-initramfs -u" afterwards may help. If the Dom0 is a Debian or Ubuntu, the distribution and suite for DomUs defaults to the distribution and suite the Dom0 is running. Otherwise Debian DomUs get "stable" and Ubuntu "lucid" by default. Default Debian/Ubuntu mirror is now determined by looking into /etc/apt/sources.list (if it exists) and taking the first entry with path ending in /debian/ there. -- Axel Beckert Sun, 30 May 2010 22:36:16 +0200
