Fedora xen - Apr 2006 - guest domain boot hangs at "Freeing unused kernel memory:"

hello,

I am using fc4 image from http://jailtime.org/download:fedora:fc4 on fc5
with xen. however when I run "xm create fedora.fc4.xen.cfg -c", the
boot
sequence hangs at "Freeing unused kernel memory:". my cfg is:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5xenU"
memory = 128
name = "fedora.fc4"
vif  = ['''']
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = [''file:/xen/fedora/fedora.fc4.img,sda1,w'',
''file:/xen/fedora/fedora.swap,sda2,w'']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

I found this about the problem:

http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenFaq#head-ea8b39d71e49cc16d287257de4c482f99d883097

however I checked for the devs and they are there:

mount -o loop fedora.fc4.img /mnt/
ls -alh /mnt/dev/
total 8.0K
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4.0K Sep 22  2005 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4.0K Feb 10 08:07 ..
crw-------  1 root root 5, 1 Sep 22  2005 console
prw-------  1 root root    0 Apr 27  2005 initctl
crw-rw-rw-  1 root root 1, 3 Sep 22  2005 null
crw-rw-rw-  1 root root 5, 0 Sep 22  2005 tty
crw-rw-rw-  1 root root 1, 5 Sep 22  2005 zero

Also the lines

[2006-04-05 00:29:27 xend] DEBUG (blkif:24) exception looking up device
number for sda2: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
''/dev/sda2''

and

[2006-04-05 00:29:27 xend] DEBUG (blkif:24) exception looking up device
number for sda1: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
''/dev/sda1''

are interesting since all files are in place.

Any ideas?

have a nice day.
