Hello everyone, I'm a new one in xen and linux. I am trying to compile and boot Xen 3.2.1 on  2.6.25-14.fc9.x86_64 and faced some problems:
 
I have done the following steps:
(1)#tar zxvf xen-3.2.1.tar.gz
(3)#cd xen-3.2.1
(4)#make world
(5)#make install
(6)#make dist
(7)#./install.sh
 
all the above steps went well without any errors.
 
Then I created the initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img using the following step:
(8)#depmod 2.6.18.8-xen
(9)#mkinitrd -v -f --with=aacraid --with=sd_mod --with=scsi_mod initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img 2.6.18.8-xen
 
And then I change the grub.conf file:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
#          root (hd0,2)
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda4
#          initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,2)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora (2.6.25-14.fc9.x86_64)
    root (hd0,2)
    kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.25-14.fc9.x86_64 ro root=UUID=d5766f23-8458-446f-852a-55fb8279f93f rhgb quiet
    initrd /initrd-2.6.25-14.fc9.x86_64.img
title WindowXP
    rootnoverify (hd0,0)
    chainloader +1
title Xen 3.2 / XenLinux 2.6.18.8
    root (hd0,2)
    kernel /xen-3.2.1.gz
    module /vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen root=/dev/sda4 ro console=tty0
    module /initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img
 
(10)After that I reboot the system, and at begin it seems started well with several "OK"s, but it stopped with the following error:
Kernel panic - not syncing: Alee, killing interrupt handler!
 
while I tried creating initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img without any parameters:
(11)#mkinitrd initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img 2.6.18.8-xen
The error is:
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
 
So I guess the there are some problems in creating the img file.
Are there any problems in my steps or any problems in my grub.conf file?
 
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
