Adding Template to VM Server
Feb 14 2008, 10:36 PM EST
I installed the VM Server:
Oracle VM server release 2.1
Hypervisor running in 32 bit mode .

Network :
Management Interface :
If : eth0(Up) Mac : 00:0B:DB:94:8F:6B IP address : 10.254.254.145

Configured Networks and Bridges :
If : eth0 Mac : 00:0B:DB:94:8F:6B
If : eth1 Mac : 00:0B:DB:94:8F:6C
If : xenbr0 Mac : FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
If : xenbr1 Mac : FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF

CPU :
cpu family : 15
model : 2
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.06GHz

I then downloaded a template OVM_EL4U5_X86_HVM_4GB.tgz and placed it on a directory.

$ tar -xvzf OVM_EL4U5_X86_HVM_4GB1.tgz
./OVM_EL4U5_X86_HVM_4GB/
./OVM_EL4U5_X86_HVM_4GB/vm.cfg
./OVM_EL4U5_X86_HVM_4GB/system.img

gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--format violated
Read from remote host vmsvr2: Connection reset by peer
Connection to vmsvr2 closed.

The machine freezes up via my ssh connection. In addition, at the console login, when I type "root" at the login prompt I get a "Login incorrect", and no password prompt. I can do a "CTRL-ALT-DEL" to get it to reboot, but when it comes back up, there's quite a few failures. I still can't login.

If I do the rescue disk thing, what should I look for and troubleshoot?
