Hi I had Xen 2.x running peacefully on FC4 .. sigh. Yesterday I upgraded to FC5 and also downloaded and installed the new Xen version 3.x from xensource.com .. I installed via the precompiled tarball. My grub entries loook like this: title Xen 3.0 (Fedora/XenLinux 2.6) root (hd0,4) kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=260000 module /vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/sda6 ro console=tty0 module /initrd-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.img boot My /etc/fstab looks like this: /dev/sda6 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 /dev/sda7 swap swap defaults 0 0 ...

You''re using the kernel from the binary tarball and the initrd from the FC5 non-Xen kernel. To a first approximation kernel version and modules (in the initrd) must match.

If you install from tarball you need to create this yourself, e.g.: /sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.16-xen.img 2.6.16-xen (and update grub) The install.sh script does not do this automagically because initrd generation is distribution-specific.

I''ve just installed from the tarball install.sh also and have the same issue. (Mine is on RHEL4U2 on x86_64.) When I tried the mkinitrd, I get this error: [root@stone-age-global /]# /sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.16-xen.img 2.6.16-xen No dep file found for kernel 2.6.16-xen After looking through the other kernels I have, it seems as though they have them. What is the workaround here? Do we just copy over the other deps and modify them for 2.6.16-xen?

I just tried copying the modules.dep file from the stock FC5 kernel .. mkinitird is successful . The system boots also using the initrd produced .. However the network modules are disabled and both eth0 and eth1 are not enabled. Strange since everything works with the stock kernel .. I guess some more work needs to be done on the modules.dep file .. Can someone please help ? Regards Srini>I''ve just installed from the tarball install.sh also >and have the same >issue.

OK, I got it running ... I first executed : depmod 2.6.16-xen and this generated the required modules.dep and other files. Then I executed : mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.16-xen.img 2.6.16-xen and this generated the proper initrd file And voila the boot worked perfectly and my xen dom0 is atleast running .. Now to get domU ;-) Thanks to James for pointing me in the right direction Cheers Srini>I just tried copying the modules.dep file from the stock FC5 kernel .. >mkinitird is successful . > >The system boots also using the initrd produced .. > >However the network modules are disabled and both eth0 and eth1 are not >enabled.

Please include the list on your replies, I''m out of town at the moment so you''ll probably get quicker responses from others on the list. You need to run e.g.: depmod -a 2.6.16-xen (This is the same procedure you would use to install any new Kernel, Xen or otherwise.)
