Re: [Xen-users] mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root' 
| Can you please post your grub.conf section for this kernel? I think the initrd you are specifying in your grub.conf doesnt have the drivers to mount your root fs. Try creating the mkinitrd the README way, except dont put the aacraid part in the command.

Hi there. I got a kernel panic caused by <mount: could not findfilesystem '/dev/root'> when I tried to install xen from the sources
 (to compile modules on my own).
 
 Now I have installed in my system Fedora Core 5 the following kernels:
 
 2.6.20
 2.6.20-1 xen0
 2.6.16 xen
 2.6.18-1 xen0
 2.6.15
 
 All of the kernels run ok except the 2.6.16 xen kernel, it causes the
 kernel panic on boot. I downloaded this from the repositories in
 http://xenbits.xensource.com/, the xen-3.0.3-testing.hg; I used
 mercurial to get a copy.
 
 I followed the Readme so I did
 
 make world
 make install
 
 Then I had in my /boot what we ned to boot except the initrd. I made
 it twice and none of them worked:
 
 -mkinitrd -v -f --with=aacraid --with=sd_mod --with=scsi_mod
 initrd-2.6.16.29-xen.img 2.6.16.29-xen      -> that's the Readme way
 -mkinitrd initrd-2.6.16.29-xen.img
 2.6.16.29-xen       -> when the
 Readme didn't work
 
 I have no idea what the problem can be, if something similar occured
 to anyone or anyone can give me a light about this problem it would be
 a great help.
 
 If someone needs more details about my configuration or else just ask me please.
 
 One last thing, before the kernel panic occurs a warning appears. This
 is about "unsupported acesses", it sais that there is a problem with
 the /lib/tls and that because of this the system may run slow. If
 someone believe that this is important I can copy here the exact
 message.
