Re: [Xen-users] Re: installation help for xen3.0.2-2 with linux-2.6.16 kernel

["Hardeep Singh" <hardeepguru@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Thanks a lot. That helped though I had to put com1=38400,8n1 due to a different baud rate of my terminal, otherwise all I could see was junk! My Xen is now up and running :)

Thanks & Regards,
Hardeep

I think this is referring to getting the modules in a domU.  You can
'mkinitrd -o /boot/inird-xen-3.0.img 2.6.16-xen' and then add another
module line to your grub menu.lst .  It'll probably end up looking like this:

title       Xen 3.0
kernel      /boot/xen-3.0.gz dom0_mem=262144 com1=9600,8n1
module      /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/hda1 ro console=ttyS0
module      /boot/initrd- xen-3.0.img
boot
