Hi,
i installed xen 2.0 on my new installed gentoo box. xen0 works great,
but i can't get domU kernel to mount root fs:
VFS: Cannot open root device "sda5" or unknown-block(8,5)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(8,5)
this happens with all root-fs i've tried, ttylinux and my cloned root
from Xen0. ttylinux lives now on a hdc partition, the cloned root were
lvm2 devices over kernlraid, which worked fine on my old gentoo with
xeno-unstable.
fstab on ttylinux also points to sda5, sda5 also exists on Xen0, but
also hda1 doesn't work. i also saw similar problem with wrong config of
disk= parameter, but doesn't help me.
config looks like following for these parts:
# disk = [ 'phy:vg1/vm101,hda1,w', 'phy:vg1/vm101-swap,hda2,w',
'phy:sdb7,hdc1,r!', 'phy:sdc5,hdc2,r!' ]
disk = [ "file:/machines/backup/ttylinux-xen,sda5,w" ]
#disk = [ 'phy:hdc6,hda1,w' ]
#ip = "192.168.1.101"
#netmask = "255.255.255.0"
#gateway = "192.168.1.1"
# Set root device.
root = "/dev/sda5 ro"
i believe i forgot something in the kernel for XenU but i started with
default-config.
Thanks & Regards,
Björn
