Hello,
I just gain experiences in using XEN and hope you can help me.
My hostsystem is Centos5 that I installed on a Software-Raid (Level 1).
Afterwards I downloaded the debian-tarball from the jailtime.org website,
extracted/mounted the image and copied the
"/
lib/modules/<kernelversion>"-folder from my host to the guest.
My XEN-Configfile looks like this:
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.el5xen"
memory = 128
name = "debian.3-1"
vif = [ '' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = ['file:/xen/debian/debian.3-1.img,sda1,w
',
'file:/xen/debian/debian.swap,sda2,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
When I try to start the VM, I get the following messages:
Using config file "/etc/xen/debian".

It looks like it can't mount the root-filesystem and I don't know, what
I have done wrong.
Can you give me a hint?
Thanks a lot!
