So I gave up on the mkuml script, though it appeared to work. I went to jailtime.org, downloaded the image along with the cfg file.

I'm using this for my xm config file --

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5xen" ------ Should I be using something else here? --------
memory = 256
name = "slackware.12-1"
dhcp = "dhcp"
vif = ['']
disk = ['file:/var/lib/xen/images/slackware.12-1.img,sda1,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

And the error I am getting is --

No filesystem could mount root, tried:  ext2 iso9660
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown- block(1,0)

And my full screen output is --

xm create slackware.12-1.xen3.cfg -c

I'm running xen 3.1 on a centos5.2 box. It was installed via yum.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Charlie

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to install a copy of slackware for a vm, and I'm following the following page for instructions - http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/SlackwareDomU

I keep running into snags with the mkuml installer script. Is there any more 'updated' solution to installing this? Or am I doomed to modifying the mkuml.sh script until I can get it to install?

I'm sure I'll get it sooner than later, but it's getting annoying to have to constantly keep tweaking this script.

Thanks,

Charlie
