Hello all, I've installed xen 3.1 on slackware 12 and I have a problems
with xen kernel boot.

I installed it with this steps.

make world
make install

this is the menu.lst of grub
# Other bootable partition config begins
  title Windows on (/dev/sda1)
  rootnoverify (hd0,0)
  makeactive
  chainloader +1
# Other bootable partition config ends
# Linux bootable partition config begins
  title Linux on (/dev/sda3)
  root (hd0,2)
  kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda3 ro vga=normal
#Linux XEN (I added it)
    title Xen 3.0 / XenLinux 2.6
    root (hd0,2)
    kernel /boot/xen-3.1.0.gz
    module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/sda3 ro
    #module /boot/initrd-2.6-xen.img

but when I boot with xen kernel appear this error...

VFS: cannot open root device "sda3" or unknown-block (0,0)
please append a correct "root=" boot option
kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs or  unknown-block (0,0)
