[Xen-users] no init found error when starting a PV guest
Howdy,
I just tried creating a PV guest on my SLES 10 machine. Following are the
basic steps I went through for that.
Under Yast/Xen - Add -> use a disk image or a physical disk that contains
OS boot files -> disks -> Add -> create a new disk image (virtual disk
=
sda2, Source= /var/lib/xen/images/vm3/sda2) - > Accept -> Operating System
Boot - > Partition containing boot files = sda2, xen Enabled Kernel:
/boot/vmlinuz-xen, boot file(initrd):/boot/initrd-xen, boot option:
TERM=xterm
When starting the PV guest I get the error message:
Kernel Panic - no syncing: No init found: try passing init= to kernel.
fdisk -l
