I was trying to install VM software on my Ubuntu system. Since I'm not very familiar with linux I followed a guide on the official Ubuntu site. Now I am running Ubuntu in a Xen environment, but I don't want to use Xen to make my virtual machines.
I installed Virtualbox in order to create my VM's, but Virtualbox doesn't run in a Xen environment.
I have tried googling for a way to remove Xen from my system, but I am unable to do it. This is what I've tried so far:
/boot/grub/grub.cfg
set default="Xen 4.1-amd64"
to set default=1
which was recommended by a tutorial. It made my laptop start up in recovery mode and I had to generate a new grub config file which put the default back to xen./boot/grub/menu.lst
but I don't have any files called that on my systemuser@BEL-8WF4XW1:~$ sudo find / -name menu.lst
user@BEL-8WF4XW1:~$
make uninstall
but I didn't use the source code.yum
and do sudo yum install kernel
followed by sudo yum remove xen kernel-xen libvirt
but that also didn't work.I'm quite lost to be honest. Can anyone help me to get my Ubuntu back to how it was before I tried to follow that guide?
You can just try
sudo apt-get remove xen-hypervisor-amd64
or
dpkg -i xen-hypervisor-amd64
to see which xen files have been installed in your machine
