Hi,
I compiled Xen 3.3.0 according to the steps given in the readme byrunning the following:

#make world

#make install

I tried to create an initrd using the following:

#depmod 2.6.18.8-xen

#mkinitrd -v -f --with=aacraid --with=sd_mod --with=scsi_mod initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img 2.6.18.8-xen

and got the following error:

Unknown option: -v

Try mkinitrd -h

Then I added the "aacraid, sd_mod, scsi_mod" to "INITRD_MODULES" section in "/etc/sysfconfig/kernel", as mentioned in one of the archieved mails and executed

#mkinitrd initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img 2.6.18.8-xen

The result was:

/sbin/mkinitrd: line 3521: initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img/etc/fstab: No such file or directory
No '/' mountpoint specified in initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img/etc/fstab

The same issue was mentioned in 2006 by someone but I could not see any proper response. Can someone please help me here?

Thanks,
AswiniKumar.
