This may seem like a stupid question but how does one go
about create
a VBD that can be used with the netbsd-INSTALL-XEN3_DOMU
kernels for
installation?
I have created a disk image with "dd if=/dev/zero
of=nbsd-disk bs=1k
seek=2048k count=1" and am able to start and enter the
NetBSD
installation program through the DOMU kernel, but when after
going
through the partition and disklabel steps, I get this error
as it
attempts to create the filesystem:
"disklabel: Can't read master boot record 0:
Input/output error"
"disklabel: /dev/rxbd0d: Input/output error"
My xen config file uses this line:
disk = [ 'file:/home/msun/nbsd-disk,0x1,w' ]
Do I need to fdisk the file disk image? Or manually
disklabel and
create a filesystem on it?
