Xen seems to start but Xenolinux does not. My guess is that my SCSI
adapter is not recognized by XEN. My machine uses the following
adapter:
LSI Logic. If it is the case, do you know how I could include support
for this adapter in Xen?
You are right. As for SCSI, currently Xen only supports BusLogic,
aacraid,
aic7xxx and megaraid. Take a look at 'xen/drivers/scsi'
One thing that's particular tricky about porting drivers from Linux to
Xen
is that: Linux is thread-driven whereas Xen is event-driven.
If you want to port the scsi driver, the best way is to look at the
'diff -u' of
Xen BusLogic and Linux BusLogic, and post questions to the list.
