hey all
not sure if it is a common problem , or just related to the citrix XenServer
i tried reactOS today and i want to put it on my hypervisor
it works perfectly in VMware, but as soon i want to install it on XenServer then it fails
lets reproduce the steps ( cant post screenshots at this moment , i will do that later )
i got the reactOS iso into my Iso libary (same as other iso's )
i create a new VM and i need to select a template
i got the choise out of differend linux flavors and some windows flavors , starting from windows 7 ( 32 bit )
There suggestion is to use the " Others" template if the version you want is not avaible in the template list
for windows 2003 and windows xp do the "others" template work ( also the windows 2008 template works )
for reactos it does not work ...
so after selecting a template and pressing the create vm button ( and mounting the iso ofcourse )then the reactOS installation starts
so far so good , it find the iso and it boots from the iso
now it start , it shows the blue screen with text on it and then a screen that says .... detecting hardware (or something like that , the pre post before install, maybe second or third install screen ? )
and it just stays stuck on there , never got past that screen
is there a way to get reactos running on Xenserver 8.0 or XNG-CP 8.0 ( same as xenserver , only open source )
Thank you

Re: Citrix XenServer and reactOS
I just tried on XCP-NG 8 using the Server 2008 (32 bit) template and had no issues:

Re: Citrix XenServer and reactOS
I use the boot iso
In meantime there are some other problems not related to reactos
As on chat they asked to provide serial logs but as I am kinda buzzy dit I not got time to provide it
Today I tried it again but it also failt
It does works on unraid and qemu
Probably not reactos fault as when I install zorin os ( based on Ubuntu ) then I get a bios crash ( hp g8 node. Both servers )
And I dint even got to test reactos as the node keeps freezing after those crash
At this moment we are switching to proxmox as xng-cp is providing a lot of trouble ( because nas ? Ha mode ? Bios bug ? So many possible things )
So if it does work on xencenter then I am happy , then I know it’s not reactos but probably xenserver and the g8/g6 server ( dual cpu sock )
As soon proxmox is on it and I can test again and I let you know
Thank you for testing out
I do love the software and really want to use it
But at this moment I can not provide any feedback as My server is providing trouble
When I made this post everything was working ( got a lot of vps servers running on it at that time ). But at this point not even centos is working xd

Too late answer. We discussed this subject on Nov 28 in the chat: https://chat.reactos.org/reactos/pl/4o1 ... x7qjh9raqc
OP is using 0.4.12 instead of 0.4.14-dev, and it was USB problem.
