[one-users] Installation From ISO images

Fri Jan 22 09:01:08 PST 2010

Hi,

I have done the changes, still it is not working.

Pls have a look at the attached screen shot.

This is the new template  file

# cat solaris10.one
NAME   = solaris10
CPU    = 0.2
MEMORY = 1280

OS = [ boot = "cdrom" ]

DISK = [
 source   = "/srv/cloud/images/imgs/sol.img",
 target   = "hda",
 save     = "yes",
 clone    = "no" ]

DISK = [
 source   = "/srv/cloud/images/isos/osol-0906-x86.iso",
 type     = "cdrom",
 target   = "hdb",
 clone    = "no" ]

NIC = [ NETWORK="Pcloud Network01"]

GRAPHICS = [ type = "vnc", listen  = "node02.pcloud.com", port = "5902"]

REQUIREMENTS = "HOSTNAME = \"node02*\""
