XenServer 6.5 doesn't have an Ubuntu 56 template so you have to create one.
- Make a new Ubuntu template:
TEMPLATE_UUID=`xe template-list name-label="Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04 (64-bit)" params=uuid --minimal`
NEW_TEMPLATE_UUID=`xe vm-clone uuid=$TEMPLATE_UUID new-name-label="Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 (64-bit)-Fixed"`
xe template-param-set other-config:default_template=true other-config:debian-release=trusty uuid=$NEW_TEMPLATE_UUID - Create new VM using the template and select URL:
http://archive.ubuntu.net/ubuntu/ - Add boot parameters:
-- quiet console=hvc0 ks=http://\[domain name\]/ubuntu/trusty-server.ks
e.g. I use MAMP and then SourceTree to pull from my modified version of Frederick's on Coultard Ltd GitHub
ks=http://192.168.0.181:8888/xenserver-kickstart/ubuntu-14.04/trusty-server.ks
NB: you will need to mirror the GitHub repo as the bootloader can't get the file over https - Set the number of CPUs and Ram then run the installer
- Remove the file from the boot parameters
Thanks to Virantha Ekanayake and Frederick for this information.
