Hello, I have received the following error message: PGP signatures could not be verified for public key "83FE14C957E82BD9". Can you advise? Thank you for your time.

@JohnTh, Yeah, your config file was really helpful for me, i successfully start arch live cd. But i understood that it is really bad idea to try to build completely work machine with 512 MB ram :D Thank you so much.

@lazycat Yes, possible to use Xen guest with little RAM. May need to boot your arch installer differently though. If you show your config, we will have a better idea. Working config for me, needs arch install iso. name='archtest' disk=['archlinux-2017.01.01-dual.iso, , xvdc, cdrom'] memory='256' root = '/dev/xvdc' bootloader='pygrub' kernel = "arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz" ramdisk = "arch/boot/x86_64/archiso.img" extra = "archisobasedir=arch archisolabel=ARCH_201701" boot='d'

@JohnTh, It is possible use xen with config less then 1500M ram?

Good to see maintainer! When trying to boot PV archiso / archboot guest: I get "Initramfs unpacking failed: write error" when there is not enough memory to unpack the ramdisk to memory. I found the archboot64 I tried needed 1500MB memory.

@das_j Thank you, it's really cool :) Successfully compile and install it, but still have problem with paravirt PV domU.. Trying to create guest with xl create -c and receive [ 0.120463] dmi: Firmware registration failed. [ 5.189734] Initramfs unpacking failed: write error Any ideas? My pc is junk? xD Or I doing something wrong?

@riaqn @lazycat I fixed the package and bumped the pkgrel. I can boot it, hopefully you can as well.

@riaqn Hello! Have same problem - cannot create correct cfg for grub (add new boot entry to grub) with 09_xen Any ideas?

<deleted-account> commented on 2017-01-15 12:33 (UTC)

@riaqn No, this should not matter. I will check once I get home, but maybe not until tomorrow.

It's probably just me: but in the compiled package, there is only a symlink from boot/xen-4.8.gz to xen-4.8.0.gz, but no xen-4.8.0.gz itself, which is necessary if I want to boot via grub? Do I have to compile on a grub-booted system(as opposed to efi-booted) to get this file in the package?
