I''ve compiled xen without any problems. but now i have to create an initrd file. When i use the command mkinitrd (without any options) the i''ve got some errors: # mkinitrd Root device: /dev/sda3 (mounted on / as reiserfs) Module list: ata_piix mptbase mptscsih qla2300 reiserfs Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11.12-xen0 Initrd image: /boot/initrd-2.6.11.12-xen0 Shared

Hi all, I have a Opteron-machine with the MPT SCSI-controller (Symbios 53c1030). At least in i386-mode, mkinitrd does not seem to build a usable initrd for 2.6.13.x (.3 tested) with this kernel. With 2.6.12.6 it works fine. I have not tested this in x86_64 -mode yet. The symptom is that mptbase and mptscsih load, but mptscsih does not discover any controllers nor drives, and things like

Hi List, Any ideas what is wrong with controller? It is running latest 5.x series of centos and driver spills out following warnings at random times: mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - IOC is in FAULT state (1600h)!!! mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - Issuing HardReset from mpt_fault_reset_work!! mptbase: ioc0: Initiating recovery mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - IOC is in FAULT state!!! mptbase: ioc0: WARNING -

I''m struggling to get Xen to boot on a FC4 Opteron box. I''ve included the tail of the boot log below [1]. I suspect that the problems relates to the software RAID 1 root and boot partitions, and how it relates to the initrd image. The RAID volumes fail to mount. I compiled the Xen snapshot from the 23rd September, and the only change I''ve made is to enable the

Hi Can anyone show me how to make a new initrd for a newly rolled kernel? I have to install a 'custom' 2.6.14 kernel and i have build the kernel and now just trying to build the initrd cd /boot mkinitrd initrd-2.6.14.img 2.6.14 No module mptbase found for kernel 2.6.14, aborting. What am i doing wrong? thanks

In case it helps anyone, here''s a script I use to boot xen0 over iscsi with an initrd using linux-iscsi and iscsi-init (both on sourceforge). Some (or most) of it might be debian (sarge) specific though. The script goes in /etc/mkinitrd/scripts and puts the bits and pieces in place. It has to prepend stuff to /script in the resultant initrd so it does a few funny things. Add your Ethernet

Hi, Afraid I dont have a very new system to try out Xen.. It''s an ia32 PIII machine with 1GB memory (that''s gud i believe). When I try to build the initrd image for my xen kernel, i get error messages complaining about missing modules, so am trying to compile them on my own. Could find support for the remaining three, but am left with lpfcdd.ko. Couldnt find an appropriate

I am unable to boot Dom0 on a machine with Reiser file systems. Reiser support is built into the xen0 kernel. I have similar setup with ext3 file systems working just fine, so I don''t think it is a setup problem. I have tried booting with and without and initrd file, booting with the original Linux distro initrd file, etc, but nothing seems to work. I recall seeing a thread about ReiserFS

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello List, So I managed to get Xen 3.0.1 compiled and installed, but the machine failed to boot from the Xen kernel. The server's physically located at a Co-lo, so I'm having to rely on somebody on the other end to tell me what it's doing and saying. When I try to boot the -xen0 kernel, the screen fills up with Segmentation Faults and

I have a question regarding the building of the unified xen kernel (linux-2.6-xen) and the use of initrd. In the past I built both xen0 and xenU kernels; the xen0 default configurations had SCSI and Fusion MPT support compiled into the kernel. Now, they are built as modules. The problem is that I am unable to boot the xen kernel built that way, even though I am building an initrd. I have

I am installing Xen on a remote server. I left the other kernels on the grub.conf and made xen the default to boot from. The box didn''t boot into Xen on reboot but I''m not sure why. Here is my Xen config file: # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that #

Hey there, Earlier today I went to rebuild a Xen0 kernel and my modules_image failed with an error based on the fact that my Xen0 image did not have the standard kernel-image-XXX/linux-image-XXX name format. The error output is at the bottom of this email. Previously it had worked fine, only recently the maintainer (Kel) of the module source added some restrictions to modules.control.in to look
