OpenVZ virtualization in Slackware
Hello, I'm trying to get OpenVZ up and running on my Slackware box and all the instructions are for debian based distros. I was hoping I could get a few translations from any one who is multilingual.
First of all, I've been following these instructions to install. I have allready compiled the 2.6.18 kernel with the openvz patch and have my Slack box up and running with it. Now the instructions say I need to send some parameters to the kernel to get everything to work right. It says to configure GRUB like so: Code:
title Fedora Core (2.6.8-022stab029.1) Next, it talks about configuring sysctl. Code:
##/etc/sysctl.conf Other then those things, is there anything anyone would like to share that can make my life easier? I'm sure I could find these answers myself, but I'm not sure I know enough about all this to make sure I found the best answer. ;) Thanks! ...aaron |
I wouldn't add that to grub.conf ... looks like those instructions are specific to Fedora Core. They require some translation ... I'll have to look into it a bit ... just a min.

Ok, well this one should work (if you're using grub):
Code:
title OpenVZ (2.6.8-022stab029.1) as for Quote:
Other than that, not sure what to do with '/sbin/service vz start', you might have to run that after the kernel boots. |
Thanks for the help! Still haven't gotten it working yet, but I feel you got me on the right track now.

Unfortunatly, there's a lot more to it then just telling it to "start", but now that I got this part figured out, I'm no longer at a mental road block. I'll post back if I have any updates. Thanks again, ...aaron |
Well I at least have it sorta working now. One of the problems I was having was a missing init script that is only included when you download the precompiled binaries. I was able to get the VE running after moving the init script to /etc/rc.d/rc.openvz, and creating a Slackware template from reading this guide (in addition to the packages they say to install, I also had to install l/libtermcap and l/glibc. I could have just been doing somthing wrong however).
Now my problem is running software in the VE (sshd in particular), but the is more an issue of configuring the Slackware template with the correct kernel settings and libs. Any ways, thanks again for thr help! ...aaron |
