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

[PoWah Wong <wong_powah@xxxxxxxx>]

I followed your suggestion to make grub.conf  file as follows:
 default=0
 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 
selinux=0 setenforce=0 acpi=0
     module /initrd-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0.img
 but still has the same problem:
 ...
 unmounting old /dev
 unmounting old /proc
 unmounting old /sys
 switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory
 kernel panic - not syncing : attempt to kill init
 ...

Have you tried putting the boot parameters on this line?

module /vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 3

I have discovered this is where Xen expects the kernel boot parameters,
although it doesn't appear to be well documented.  Hope this helps.
