Aravindh,

I am having an issue similar to what you described here, where if I build the 2.6-xen kernel + initrd, I am unable to boot, but if I revert to building xen0 and xenU, everything works fine. My machines also have Ultra320 SCSI adapters. My boot attempts end with the "VFS: Unable to mount root fs on /dev/sda1" message.

I have an Adaptec 392320 Ultra320 SCSI adapter. I am running x86_64
SLES9 SP3. When I build x86_64 Xen with just the 2.6-xen kernel +
initrd, I am getting the following error on the module load.
But if I go back to building separate xenU and xen0 kernels without
initrd the device works without any issues. Any idea what is going wrong
here? Am I leaving something out of my initrd?
Here is the output of my mkinitrd:
