Hi,

I have installed XEN in my Fedora Linux machine and have the following entries in the /boot/grub/grub.conf file:
<<<<<<<
title Fedora Core (2.6.17.3)
        root (hd0,4)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.17.3 ro root=/dev/vol/root rhgb quiet
        initrd /initrd-2.6.17.3.img
title Xen 3.0 / XenLinux 2.6
        root (hd0,4)
        kernel /xen-3.0.gz dom0_mem=262144
        module /vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/sda5 ro console=tty0
>>>>>>>>

I have the following concerns:
1. Can someone the value that should go in the "root" field of the "module" parameter? What value should this contain. Is it the "root path" from where the current OS is loading (or) "boot path" from where the current OS is loading?
2. When I reboot the machine and try loading XEN, the "VFS failure" error occurs. I understand this is because of the wrong value in the "root" field.

Thanks in advance,
