Re: [Xen-users] Newbie question: FC5 boot problem with a blue screen

[PoWah Wong <wong_powah@xxxxxxxx>]

grub.conf  is modified as follows:
default=0
#default=5
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,4)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
#hiddenmenu
title Fedora Core (2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0)
    root (hd0,4)
    kernel /xen.gz-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5
    #module /vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0 ro root=LABEL=/
    module /vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 3
    module /initrd-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5) original
    root (hd0,4)
    kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
    initrd /initrd-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.img
title Windows XP
    rootnoverify (hd0,1)
    chainloader +1

During boot, the computer has a kernel panic, so it will reboot again and stuck 
in an infinite loop of rebooting.

If the grub.conf has this line:
module /vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0 ro root=LABEL=/
During reboot to the FC5 XEN kernel, the computer is hung with a lot of the 
"avc:  denied" messages:
...

audit(1152294237.706:383): avc:  denied  { read write } for pid=2678 comm=
nfig" name="[7424]" dev=sockfs ino=7424 scontext=system_u:system_r:ifconfig

audit(1152294237.754:384): avc:  denied  { create } for pid=2687 comm="pyt

Try removing "rhgb quiet" first. Also, I think I've read where "LABEL=/" 
is iffy - better to replace it with the full 
path "/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00", or whatever yours might be...
