[Xen-users] Xen 3.0 domain creation issues on fc4

["James" <seven@xxxxxxxx>]

I think I found the issue, Xen seems to be unable to find the IDE drives, although the os, (Fedora Core 4), has no problem.  I will have to try another IDE controller.  Does anyone have a better solution?

 

Files used

FSTAB on the vm01 file system

/dev/sda1          /                        ext3          defaults 1 1

none                 /dev/pts            devpts      gid=5,mode=620 0 0

none                 /dev/shm           tmpfs       defaults 0 0

none                 /proc proc                         defaults 0 0

none                 /sys sysfs                          defaults 0 0

 

vm01.cfg used to start the domain

 

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12.6-xen3_7.1_fc4"

 

memory = 448

 

name = "vm01"

 

nics = 1

 

disk = [ 'phy:/dev/mapper/vg-lvm1,sda1,w' ]

 

dhcp = "dhcp"

 

root = "/dev/sda1"

 

extra = "ro selinux=0 3"

 

Results from the os screen:
