I'm trying to get a Debian VM running on my XenServer 6.2 farm, and I keep running into road blocks.

I've built an OTRS 3.3.8 Appliance in Virtualbox. I've been running it for days on my workstation to get it tweaked and dialed in, and I haven't had a single problem. I exported the VM as an OVA and imported it into my production Xen farm, and it fails to boot with error:

ip: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device
"mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /SYSTEM failed: No such device or address"
"Could not mount harddisk, starting debug shell..."
"sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"

And that error repeats for basically every mount imaginable.

So instead of spending a lot of time trying to fix it, I decided to just rebuild the server on XEN, and as soon as the installer attempts to mount and format the disk I get the same SIOCGIFFLAGS error.

Have any of you seen this before? Am I better posting this question in the Linux section?

Under Xenserver, it's probably /dev/vda1

Can you post a screenshot of your issue? Are you using the XenServer Debian Template?
