RE: [Xen-users] Cannot open root device "sda1" or unknown-block ..
Hi,
There's a problem with /root partition.. All these images has a different
partition other than /dev/sda1 ..
So did a -loop & update fstab make these image run..
Thanks for the attention ..

My experience is that either "sda" or "xvda" work in redhat 5-like domU's
but for redhat 4-like domU's you have to use xvda (that is, when dom0 is
also redhat5-like). Is there any reason
why that would be?
