Hi
After compiling/installing xen 3.0-devel with "make world; make
install" i''ve changed my /boot/grub/menu.lst file with the
following content:
title XEN 3
kernel (hd0,2)/boot/xen-3.0-devel.gz dom0_mem=131072 console=vga
module (hd0,2)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-xen0 root=/dev/sda3 ro console=tty0
When booting the system says something about a missing NFS-root and asks for a
root floppy. Why it does not start from /dev/sda3?

Try using an initrd.

Why it does not start from /dev/sda3? >The kernel always tries to use NFS root or floppy as last resort, when everything else fails. In your case its probably the SCSI hostcontroller driver that is missing or fails initializing. if you just compile with "make world; make install", it basically will use the plain vanilla kernel configs, without drivers for fancy hardware. So check your kernel config for the needed driver, if its there, but compiled as module, try generating and using an initrd, otherwise recompile the kernel, statically including the driver. (just enter the kernel source directory inside the xen sources, "make ARCH=xen menuconfig" should work from there) /Ernst _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
