Hi All

I have deployment problem with my VMs.
I have tried two images ttylinux and centos.
I think there is something wrong with defining disks.

This is the output of file ../ttylinux.img :

/srv/ttylinux.img: x86 boot sector, LInux i386 boot LOader; partition
1: ID=0x83, starthead 1, startsector 63, 81585 sectors, extended
partition table (last)\011

---------------------------------------------------------
output of file ../centos.img :
---------------------------------------------------------

/srv/cloud/one/1Gimage/euca-centos-5.3-x86_64/centos.orig.5-3.x86-64.img:
Linux rev 1.0 ext3 filesystem data (large files)

-------------------------------------------------
VM Description file:
-------------------------------------------------
NAME   = centos
CPU    = 0.1
MEMORY = 64

OS     = [
kernel="/srv/cloud/one/1Gimage/euca-centos-5.3-x86_64/xen-kernel/vmlinuz-2.6.27.21-0.1-xen"
#initd   = "/srv/cloud/one/1Gimage/euca-centos-5.3-x86_64/xen-#kernel/initrd-2.6.27.21-0.1-xen"
,  root = "sda1"
]

DISK   = [
 source   = "/srv/cloud/one/1Gimage/euca-centos-5.3-x86_64/centos.orig.5-3.x86-64.img",
 target   = "sda1",
 readonly = "no" ]

#DISK = [ type = mnt,
#         size = 2048,
#         taget = sd2]

DISK = [ type = swap,
        size = 2048,
        target = sd3
]

NIC    = [ NETWORK = "net201" ]

FEATURES=[ acpi="no" ]

--------------------------------------------------
fstab file from centos image
---------------------------------------------------
/dev/sda1         /             ext3     defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 0

proc             /proc         proc     defaults                   0 0

--------------------------------------------------
fstab file from tylinux image
---------------------------------------------------
/dev/hda1     /            ext2       defaults                      0 0
tmpfs         /dev         tmpfs      noauto                        0 0
devpts        /dev/pts     devpts     gid=5,mode=0620               0 0
tmpfs         /dev/shm     tmpfs      rw,noexec,nosuid,size=24k     0 0
proc          /proc        proc       noauto                        0 0
sysfs         /sys         sysfs      noauto                        0 0


I have gained the fstab files by mounting the images in a temporary
folder and then umount it again.
I don't know how to define mnt partition of centos image in
description file which is sd2 in fstab file.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Ghazal
