Re: [Xen-users] Partitioned Ubuntu menu.lst settings -
 
Perhaps the problem is that you're missing a "root" line in your grub 
menu, e.g. try putting the following line before the "kernel" line:
root            (hd0,4)
 If I'm not mistaken, that should map to /dev/sda5, which is your boot 
partition.

I'm having trouble booting the Xen kernel. The error message is:
cannot open root device "/dev/sdaX" or unkown block (0,0),
which is causing a kernel panic.
My menu.lst file contains the following entry
title Xen 3.0 / XenLinux 2.6
kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=512M
module /vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen root=/dev/sda6 ro console=tty0
'df' yields the following:
/dev/sda6             15116836   6040976   8307956  43% /
tmpfs                  1002704         0   1002704   0% /lib/init/rw
varrun                 1002704       112   1002592   1% /var/run

/dev/sda5               202187     94289     97459  50% /boot
/dev/sda7             50396528  10802436  37034140  23% /home
and although I suspect the problem has something to do with the partitioning
of /boot and /, I would appreciate some advice on possible remedies.
