CentOS - Sep 2009 - Xen Kernel 2.6.18-164 and Hypervisor 3.3.1 problem.

Hi,

I just upgraded the my Dom0 kernel on my Xen machine and it failed to boot. The
hypervisor itself comes from the Gitco repository.

I couldn't catch the exact reason, other than it said something about no
proper root and failing to synch. It rebooted a second or so later and I
can't seem to find the relevant log.

As I learned from the other thread this is an early release of the kernel.

Should I wait until the rest of the release catches up before trying to resolve
this, or should I try now? Should I treat it as a Xen issue or a CentOS issue.

The system boots fine on the non-Xen variant of the kernel and fin in the
previous kernel

Thanks in advance,

Ian.

I've got about a dozen machines which are running the -164 kernel in the 
dom0 with about 20 VM's running various kernels under there for i386 and 
x86_64 with no problems.

your problem is most likely caused due to issues in the non CentOS 
components.
