add new bootloader xenpvnetboot for pv guest
`xenpvnetboot' supports getting boot images from following locations: - http://host/path - https://host/path - ftp://host/path - file:///path - tftp://host/path - nfs:host:/path - /path - /path/file.iso - /path/filesystem.img - /dev/sda1 - nfs+iso:host:/path/file.iso - nfs+iso:host:/path/filesystem.img To use it, make `xenpvnetboot' as bootloader for PV guest:: bootloader = '/usr/bin/xenpvnetboot' To get boot images from various locations, set the right bootloader arguments, e.g.: bootloarder_args = ['--location=http://192.168.0.1/fedora/x86_64'] bootloarder_args = ['--location=ftp://192.168.0.1/fedora/x86_64'] bootloarder_args = ['--location=file:///fedora/x86_64'] bootloarder_args = ['--location=tftp://192.168.0.1/fedora/x86_64'] bootloarder_args = ['--location=/fedora/x86_64'] bootloarder_args = ['--location=/fedora/Fedora-16-x86_64-DVD.iso'] bootloarder_args = ['--location=nfs:192.168.0.1:/fedora/x86_64'] bootloarder_args = ['--location=nfs+iso:192.168.0.1:/fedora/Fedora-16-x86_64-DVD.iso'] You can use `kernel' and `ramdisk' to specify the relative path of boot kernel and ramdisk. `xenpvnetboot' will join them with the location to find the boot kernel and ramdisk, e.g.: kernel = 'images/pxeboot/vmlinuz' ramdisk = 'images/pxeboot/initrd.img' bootloarder_args = ['--location=http://192.168.0.1/fedora/x86_64'] kernel = 'fedora/x86_64/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz' ramdisk = 'fedora/x86_64/images/pxeboot/initrd.img' bootloarder_args = ['--location=http://192.168.0.1/'] You can also omit the `--location' option and specify the full URL for `kernel' and `ramdisk' directly, e.g.: kernel = 'http://192.168.0.1/fedora/x86_64/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz' ramdisk = 'http://192.168.0.1/fedora/x86_64/images/pxeboot/initrd.img' If only `--location' is specified and `kernel' and `ramdisk' are not specified, `xenpvnetboot' will search the following places for boot images from the location:: ('images/xen/vmlinuz', 'images/xen/initrd.img'), # Fedora <= 10 and OL = 5 ('boot/i386/vmlinuz-xen', 'boot/i386/initrd-xen'), # openSUSE >= 10.2 and SLES >= 10 ('boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-xen', 'boot/x86_64/initrd-xen'), # openSUSE >= 10.2 and SLES >= 10 ('current/images/netboot/xen/vmlinuz', 'current/images/netboot/xen/initrd.gz'), # Debian ('images/pxeboot/vmlinuz', 'images/pxeboot/initrd.img'), # Fedora >=10 and OL >= 6 ('isolinux/vmlinuz', 'isolinux/initrd.img'), # Fedora >= 10 and OL >= 6 `xenpvnetboot' requires python module `urlgrabber' http://urlgrabber.baseurl.org/.
