Hi, guys

I try to install xen 3.4.2 on my mint 8, and got the following error
when system boots:

not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknow-block (0,0)

This is my grub2 config:

menuentry "Xen 3.4 / XenLinux 2.6 (/dev/sda1)" {
           insmod ext2
    set root=(hd0,1)
    search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 2cc821fc-4ac1-426a-bfb6-0e97e8a07046
    multiboot  (hd0,1)/boot/xen-3.4.gz
    module (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen root=/dev/sda1 ro   quiet splash
}

My guess that the problem is due to EXT4, does anyone can give me some advise?

Thanks
Yunfeng
