Re: [Xen-users] Boot Problem with XEN 3.1.
Hi,
Ok i've had another crack at this one with the modules suggestion i did
this
mkinitrd -c -k 2.6.18-xen -m
jbd:ext3:ide-cd:ide-disk:ide-generic:libata:jfs -f ext3 -r /dev/hda1
I got it to boot but starting xend i get this.
root@slackyxen:~# xend start
/usr/lib/python/xen/xend/server/SrvDaemon.py:20: RuntimeWarning: Python

No idea what its about but its a step forward.
Right back to debugging.

TNX Tim!
I try to create a initrd like this command:
mkinitrd -v -f --with=aacraid --with=sd_mod --with=scsi_mod -o
initrd-2.6.18-xen.img -m 2.6.18-xen
Now seems to be XEN start but after memory message and little count
down I received another error about "/etc/fstab file not found" and
"no /sbin/init found on rootdev (or not mouted!)".
I can't past precise error because xen reboot system...argh...I think
that initrd is bad builded!! Any modules is present in lib under
initrd-tree and kernel dir in /initrd-tree/lib is relative to 2.6.21.5
kernel....it would not have to be relative to xen kernel?
You have any idea? initrd bad sure....
TNX again for you help!
Best Regards

Hi to all.
I'm installed XEN3.1 correctly but I'm some problem to start it. XEN
start but I received this message:
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda5" or unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0)
This is strange because my grub is configured like this:
#XEN3.1-2.6.18
title XEN3.1-2.6.18
#root (hd0,4)
kernel (hd0,4)/boot/xen-3.1.gz dom0_mem=262144
module (hd0,4)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/hda5 ro console=tty0
Do you need an initrd? It looks like your kernel is not able to access
whatever type of disk /dev/hda5 is.
I use the following modules on my machine when making the initrd,
booting to IDE drives as well:
ide-cd
ide-disk
ide-generic
libata
ext3
jfs
This lets me access all of the partitions that I need to continue
booting, at which point I pick up device mapper modules and LVM. Likely,
you don't need jfs.
I say "strange" because I have a slack partition (is logical
partition) that start well and is configured like this:
title Slack-2.6.21.5
root (hd0,4)
kernel (hd0,4)/boot/vmlinuz-huge-2.6.21.5 root=/dev/hda5 ro vga=773
Yes, this is strange. The only explanation is the kernels being built a
little differently. Likely, your 2.6.21.5 kernel has the modules listed
above (or whatever modules are needed to boot) built in, not needing the
modules or initrd any longer.
XEN kernel is installed under this slack partition, so root option
is correctly.
You can help me?
Hope so :) You can try a menuconfig on your Xen kernel and build the
generic IDE stuff without modular support, or try an initrd.
I'm quite happy with the performance of the generic IDE drivers. If you
have a special chip set or controller, you might want to find better
drivers. The above should get you booting at least.
Hope this helps :)
