Hi,

 

 

Kindly advice on below Error… Not able to start the VM..

 

Host2:~ # vim ubuntu.9-04.x86.xen3.cfg

 

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xenpae"

memory = "256"

name = "ubuntu.9-04"

vif = ['']

dhcp = "dhcp"

disk = ['file:/root/ubuntu.9-04.x86.img,sda1,w']

root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

 

 

=============ERROR===========

Please append a correct "root=" boot option

Thanks in advance,
