RE: [Xen-devel] Re: Need help..

["Neugebauer, Rolf" <rolf.neugebauer@xxxxxxxxx>]

xc_dom_create.py should create the correct kernel command line for dom1.
In particular, it should pass the correct root partition to the domain
based. That is the "virtual partition", i.e., /dev/sda1 in your setup
from earlier today. The command line passed into the new domain should
be printed out by the newly started domain (and IIRC by xc_dom_create.py
as well)

You still have to have the correct entries in dom1's /etc/fstab (based
on the translation of physical partitions to 'virtual partitions' you
create). That's /dev/sda1 for / and /dev/sda6 for /usr of you still have
the same setup as you emailed earlier today.

What's the error message you get?
