Re: [Xen-users] Problem when booting Xen for the first time.
Simple answer: your root= option is wrong, it should probably be
root=/dev/hda2 or similar.
If your xen.gz and kernel image files live in /boot and grub can find
e.g /xen.gz rather than /boot/xen.gz on hd0,0, then you will find
that your Linux installation has a separate /boot partition (hda1) and
the root partition is elsewhere (e.g. hda2). Boot into native Linux
and run "mount" to see. The root partition (mounted as /) is the one you
want to use with root= on the kernel command line.
The documentation isn't wrong, it shows a typical example which will
vary with particular configurations.
