Fedora 18 and EFI
by W. Michael Petullo 16 Dec '12

16 Dec '12

I have successfully installed Fedora 18 Beta as Dom0 on one computer, and am now trying to do the same on another. I am using all of the standard Fedora 18 packages, including xen-4.2.0-6.fc18.x86_64. On the second computer, I ended up with an EFI grub2 install. I used yum to install xen, and noted that the package installation did not update /etc/grub2-efi.cfg. I ran grub2-mkconfig by hand, and this added Xen entries to /etc/grub2-efi.cfg. However, booting failed: grub2 complained that it did not know the multiboot keyword. Does anyone have experience getting EFI grub2 to boot Xen/Fedora 18? Is my trouble expected? -- Mike :wq

I assume they are just changes needed to get the patch to apply to libvirt 0.10.2.1 which is the version Fedora 18 has. The differences are in the surrounding code, for example extra spaces and an if-else chain which was a case statement in your patch. >> Me neither, but I think I can give it a try (next week), do you have >> pkgs? Should I build it myself? I have done a scratch build of F18 libvirt with version 2 of the patch (with the same minor tweaks) for Fedora 18 which is at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4747052 . It will also build on Fedora 17 if you have (non-standard) xen 4.2 installed. Michael Young

The final change deadline is currently 26th November. That may not be an absolute deadline, but you have a better chance of the libvirt team accepting changes before then. Michael Young
