Hi,
I have a system with 2G of RAM. I'm trying to built a rootfilesytem
over ram disk to boot XEN, but I keep getting the following error:
(XEN) ****************************************
(XEN) Panic on CPU 0:
(XEN) Domain 0 allocation is too small for kernel image.
(XEN) ****************************************
I didn't understant it, so I looked at the XEN's boot process output
in two different cases: when I use an initial ramdisk and when I use a
root filesystem over ramdisk.
When I use an initial ramdisk, I can boot XEN and Dom0 without any
problem. Besides, I noticed that
(XEN) PHYSICAL MEMORY ARRANGEMENT:
(XEN) Dom0 alloc.: 000000003c000000->000000003e000000 (470953 pages
to be all
ocated)
so the reason I'm getting the error message when I use a root
filesystem (much bigger than 33M) could be that XEN does not allocate
enough RAM to load the Dom0 kernel and the ram disk.
If that's the problem, does anyone know how to fix that? ramdisk_size
doesn't seem to work.
I'm putting here also the output when I use an inital filesystem (so
when I'm able to start XEN)
