[Xen-users] VFS: Cannot open root device and Kernel panic
It is the third times that I try to use Xen.
I install opensuse 10.2 with its 2.6.18.2-34-xen kernel. I have got a domain0. I
would like to build a new domainU. I install opensuse 10.2 in /dev/hdb5 (ext3)
as /, and it uses /dev/sda2 as swap partition (shared with dom0 opensuse).
I do not know what assign to root param and disk. I tried root ="/dev/hda1
ro" and disk = [ ''phy:/dev/hdb5,hda,w''] ; but does not
work.
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen"
root= "/dev/hdb5 ro"
disk = [ ''phy:/dev/hdb5,hdb5,w'']
memory = 64
vcpus = 1
builder = ''linux''
name = ''vm1''
vif = [ ''mac=00:16:3e:65:3a:ca'' ]
localtime = 0
on_poweroff = ''destroy''
on_reboot = ''restart''
on_crash = ''restart''
extra = '' TERM=xterm''
This is what appears when I launch the domain:
linux-wsbh:/home/vale # xm create -c /etc/xen/vm/vm1
Using config file "/etc/xen/vm/vm1".

helicoterus-elih@yahoo.it wrote:> gunzip: /boot/initrd-2.6.18.2-34-xen: unknown suffix -- ignored > cpio: premature end of archiveOK, the naming of various Linux kernels as "vmlinuz" is one of the stupider moves in the Linux world. They should be named "vmlinux.igz", or something similar, and gunzip to "vmlinux.img". The initrd files should be "initrd-[number].cgz" and gunzip to "initrd-[number].cpi" for a cpio image. You need to use something like "gzcat /boot/initrd-2.6.18.2-34-xen > initrd-2.6.18.2-34-xen.cpio". _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

RE: [Xen-users] VFS: Cannot open root device and Kernel panic
_Thank_. I copied the vmlinuz and its initrd from root of domU and I used these
file (they have ext3 support). It works. :)
Now I would like to copy all partition in a file. I read the Xen User''s
manual v3 (pages 52-53-54). But when I launch the xm create command, it can not
find root: it wants /dev/hdb5.
Using config file "/etc/xen/vm/vm1".
