Hi All,
I am not able to boot Xen .
My "/boot/grub/menu.lst" has this entry
title Xen 3.3.2-rc5 / Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18.8-xen
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/xen-3.3.2-rc5.gz
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen root=/dev/sda1 ro console=tty0
module /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18.8-xen
savedefault
I am getting following error :
ERROR WHILE BOOTING =>

Please Help me.

I followed the following procedure from the
"Introduction to the Open Source Xen Hypervisor"
Zach Shepherd and Wenjin
taken from xen blog.
Install required packages
(e.g. apt-get install gawk libssl-dev libx11-dev gettext libncurses-dev
build-essential python-dev texlive-latex-base transfig tetex-extra
bcc bin86 pciutils-dev git-core curl texinfo libc6-dev mercurial
bridge-utils graphviz)
Download the latest Xen release
(e.g. hg clone http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-3.3-testing.hg)
Compile and Install
(e.g. make world; make install)
Create a ramdisk
(e.g depmod 2.6.18.8-xen;mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18.8-xen
2.6.18.8-xen )
Configure the bootloader
(e.g update-grub)
Following are the entries in relevant files =>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options>
<dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# cat /boot/grub/device.map
(hd0) /dev/sda
(hd1) /dev/sdb
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Leena

Hi,
Assuming all the named files ("xen-3.3.2-rc5.gz",
"vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen", and "initrd.img-2.6.18.8-xen")
exist, and are in
a subdirectory called "boot" of (hd0,0), I have seen a related problem
which was unintuitive to track down:
Does the file "/boot/grub/default" exist? If not, run
"grub-set-default
0" to create it. Without this file existing and properly sized,
it''s
actually the "savedefault" line that fails because grub
doesn''t have the
intelligence to create or resize files, only modify existing content.
