I just recently got this working with Xen 3.0.2-2 with linux-2.6.16 kernel
on suse 10.1 Make sure that the qla2xxx driver is compiled into the
kernel. I believe everything that you need is there by default. Download
and install the qlogic-firmware-1.0-11 rpm. I got mine from rpmfind.net.
If you want to make sure that you have the latest version go to
ftp://ftp.qlogic.com/outgoing/linux/firmware/ and get the file for your
card. Place it in /lib/firmware/. Add qla2xxx to /etc/sysconfig/kernel
on the line INITRD_MODULES: INITRD_MODULES="... ... qla2xxx".
In /etc/modprobe.conf add the following at the bottom of the file:
alias scsi_hostadapter1 qla2xxx
alias scsi_hostadapter2 qla2xxx
(The above is for a dual port adapter.)
In /etc/modprobe.conf.local add:
options qla2xxx ql2xfdmienable=1
Make a new initrd for your kernel:
mkinitrd -k vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen -i initrd-2.6.16-xen.img
Make the appropriate entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst:
title XEN
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=384000 com1=115200,8n1
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/sda3 vga=0x317 resume=/dev/sda2
splash=silent showopts console=ttyS0, 115200
module /boot/initrd-xen <==here-this is a soft link that I created in
the /boot directory to initrd-2.6.16-xen.img.
