Drupal 6 image

Submitted by calarndt on Sun, 12/20/2009 - 11:06pm.

Using the info listed on this page:
http://stacklet.com/downloads/images/ubuntu/9.04/drupal/6.14
this image is unusable...
There is no boot kernel provided or recommended
there is no valid file for the xm create command
the page recommends reading the README under /root
yet the image is not mountable by mount
therefore it is not possible to view the files within /root

[root@localhost ~]# mount -t auto -o loop ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.img sdb1
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[root@localhost ~]#

as you can see the md5sum is correct...

[root@localhost ~]# md5sum ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.img.tar.bz2
5c2a0d14649401852c5e3b707e02e92f ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.img.tar.bz2
5c2a0d14649401852c5e3b707e02e92f ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.img.tar.bz2

I'm missing a whole bunch of insight here can someone enlighten me??

The tarball is fine. I just ran all the things you were trying with no problem. I suspect that the file did not untar properly on your system, based mainly on the fact that you can't mount the image.

# tar -xvjf ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.img.tar.bz2
# md5sum ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.*

ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.img
243bfd66cc7baa0e333c928ebf821504
ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.img.tar.bz2
5c2a0d14649401852c5e3b707e02e92f
ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.xen3.pygrub.cfg

As you can see there is a xen config file in the tarball that you can use with xm like so:

xm create ubuntu.9-04.drupal.6-14.x86.xen3.pygrub.cfg -c
