[Xen-users] Error starting DomU (Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found)

["Purav Saraiya" <purav@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am not able to start a new domainU on FC5.
To start the new domain I give command xm create -c domU.conf vmid=1.

This gives me the following error:

VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly.
Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.  Try passing init= option to
kernel.

Call Trace: <ffffffff80128d62>{panic+134} <ffffffff801083a6>{init+908}
       <ffffffff8010b7aa>{child_rip+8} <ffffffff8010801a>{init+0}
       <ffffffff8010b7a2>{child_rip+0}

The configuration that I am using:

The config file for domU - domU.conf contains:
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU"
memory = 64
name = "ExampleDomain"
vif = [ '' ]
disk = [ 'file:/srv/vm2.img,sda1,w' ]
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
extra = "4"

I created the vm2.img file
and copied /{bin, dev, etc, lib, root, sbin, usr, var} from the domain0.

In vm2.img, /etc/fstab file contains:

/dev/sda1                /           ext3    defaults        1 1
#/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /          ext3    defaults        1 1
LABEL=/boot             /boot        ext3    defaults        1 2
devpts                  /dev/pts     devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
tmpfs                   /dev/shm     tmpfs   defaults        0 0
proc                    /proc        proc    defaults        0 0
sysfs                   /sys         sysfs   defaults        0 0
#/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap       swap    defaults        0 0

In dom0, /boot contains:
config-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5          System.map-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5
config-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU      System.map-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU
vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5         initrd-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.img     
vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU     initrd-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU.img 
xen.gz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5          xen-syms-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5

It would be great if you could point out where am I making mistakes.

Thanks,
Purav
