I have had Ubuntu 10.04 guest VMs running in XenServer 6.2, both 32-bit and 64-bit without problems. After having upgraded to XenServer 6.5 a while back I now need to create a new VM which is running Ubuntu 10.04 to support some legacy app.
I am trying to create that VM from XenCenter, with the parameters 2 CPU cores, 4096 MB RAM, 32 GB disk space, network settings left at default.
However, the VM never starts. XenServer attempts to create the VM, provisions it and creates the disks, but the initial boot does not complete so the actual OS installation never occurs.
The error shown is below. I can create other types of VMs, CentOS, Ubuntu 14.04 without problems. But Ubuntu 10.04 never works after numerous attempts with varying parameters.
I cannot find any reference to this problem in Citrix docs, and Google turns up nothing. Any ideas?
