Hello, I installed Fedora 7 on my Asus L3400Tp (5 GB partition for /, 34 GB for /home), and included vairtualisation with xen in the install. My laptop only supports para-virtualisation, but that doesn''t bother me. $ grep pae /proc/cpuinfo flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm up After install I did yum update, so now I´m with the kernels as shown in the following exerpt of grub.conf: title Fedora (2.6.22.1-41.fc7) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.1-41.fc7 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.22.1-41.fc7.img title Fedora (2.6.20-2925.13.fc7xen) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/xen.gz-2.6.20-2925.13.fc7 module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-2925.13.fc7xen ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet module /boot/initrd-2.6.20-2925.13.fc7xen.img However, when I try to start xen, de following messages appear: mount: could not find file system ''/dev/root'' setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /procs: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory Kernel panic - Not syncing: Attempted to kill init! And a reboot follows. I start suspecting a bit that the ''module'' vmlinuz-2.6.20-2925.13.fc7xen for xen has a different approach of the hardware, that kernel xen.gz-2.6.20-2925.13.fc7 does something strange with it? But what? Some people suggested to use a LVM designater instead of /dev/sda, others to rebuild initrd, or to remove the ''module'' in front of initrd and vmlinuz in grub.conf, but none of those suggestions were successful. Anybody any hint?
