Re: [Xen-users] DomU crash on connecting to the console (Urgent)
 
specify the root="/dev/sdd" in your your config file. Still a lot of
things u have to do. First try to read some documents. Read a xen user
manual. This would be a good starting point.

Hi all,
 Here are the things that I tried to do:
 Created a volume group:
         # vgcreate /dev/sdd/ VG
         # lvcreate -L4096M -n myvmdisk1 VG
 Created a filesystem, mounted and populated it.
          # mkfs -t ext3 /dev/VG/myvmdisk1
         # mount /dev/VG/myvmdisk1 /mnt
         # cp -ax / /mnt
         # umount /mnt
 Now in my configuration file I did
         disk = [ 'phy:VG/myvmdisk1,sdd,w' ]
 I tried to create the VM through xm command:
        
xm create -c xmexample  vmid=4 pci=0x:0x.0 ip=x.x.x.x
netmask=x.x.x.x dhcp=off dns=<name> gateway=x.x.x.x
     
        
hostname=<hostname> 
The DomU creation goes fine and it shows on the xm list output.
 But when I try to connect to the console it panic:
         VFS: Cannot open root device "sdd" or unknown-block(2,0)
         Please append a correct "root=" boot option
         Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(2,0)
 And the DomU crashes.
 
Can anyone suggest me what might be the problem?
 Anticipating a quick reply.
 
Thanks and regards
 Ashit
