[Xen-devel] Newbie problem: disk error launching FC3 in non-0 domain
Hi again I have a minimal Fedora Core 3 image running fine as domain 0 (thanks and sorry for the previous FAQ query) using both the standard install ramdisk image, and the FC3 ramdisk image downloaded from xen sourceforge. However, I can''t get it running in a non-zero domain. In brief, I have a full FC3 installed on /dev/hda1, which I typically use as my domain 0 OS. Then I have a minimal FC3 installed on /dev/hdb2. I can boot into the minimal FC3 on /dev/hdb2 as domain 0 under Xen without a problem. I''m trying to ''xm create'' the minimal FC3 from the full FC3 under Xen, but I get a disk error. Here''s the relevant log: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ <snip> Creating /dev Starting udev Creating root device Mounting root filesystem EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. kjournald starting.

Incidently, I have bundled up the mini FC3 filesystem into a file-backed VBD and I''m getting the same problem! Curiouser and curiouser?
