[Xen-devel] xen-unstable + pvops-kernel doesn''t boot on my machine, ibm x3550M2
Hello. I''ve tried Xen-unstable + Jeremy''s pvops kernel on ibm x3550M2 server machine, but it fails to mount root fs. I''m using ibm x3550M2 server with broadcom NetXtreme II network card, and ibm RAID. (64bit) Even running pvops-kernel without xen fails, too, and I could see this booting message. pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 6: no parent found for of device [0xffff0000-ffffffff] Module for the raid (megaraid_sas.ko) is in initrd file. I''ve also tried xen-unstable + 2.6.18-xen and it boots, but it doesn''t detect my network card. it seems like it fails to allocate apic I/O resources. Anybody who''s running xen-unstable on similar configuration ?? Thank you for any comments or help.

And the boot log of a kernel which does succeed? If the kernel doesn''t boot native you need to sort that out before trying to debug the Xen case.

Re: [Xen-devel] xen-unstable + pvops-kernel doesn''t boot on my machine, ibm x3550M2
Hi, Jeremy. I''m attaching full boot log for both working/non-working case. The working case is xen-unstable+linux2.6.18.8 and it boots up, at least. Nonworking case is pvops kernel native. it might be some stupid mistake, but I''ve tried many configurations, but still it doesn''t boot..so I hope I can hear from you. Thanks!

Hi, thanks I''m using centos 5 and it was valuable information, but it still doesn''t boot. I think the issue is not in the distribution, but I''ll try Ubuntu. full serial boot log is attached to below one to Jeremy''s response. thanks!

How did you generate it? Do you have all the right dm config options to make lvm work?

How did you > generate it? Do you have all the right dm config options to make lvm > work?Centos5 may be the important clue. I''ve found that to build and boot an upstream kernel on RHEL5, it is necessary to specify: CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2=y Without these, I was seeing a highly similar result booting a 2.6.34 kernel on a RHEL5 guest. Apparently, something in nash or something that nash uses doesn''t work without some deprecated symlinks in sysfs and the resulting error looks like a bad initrd. http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/SYSFS_DEPRECATED.html Anecdotally, I''ve also found that using make -j4 doesn''t always seem to work, so I always leave off the -j4 (possibly especially in "make -j4 modules modules_install"). Perhaps one of those will help?> -----Original Message----- > From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge [mailto:jeremy@goop.org] > Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2010 11:31 AM > To: Min Lee > Cc: Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com > Subject: Re: [Xen-devel] xen-unstable + pvops-kernel doesn''t boot on my > machine, ibm x3550M2 > > On 05/27/2010 09:10 AM, Min Lee wrote: > > Hi, Jeremy. > > I''m attaching full boot log for both working/non-working case. > > The working case is xen-unstable+linux2.6.18.8 and it boots up, at > least. > > Nonworking case is pvops kernel native. > > That just looks like your initrd isn''t set up properly.

Do you have the linear device mapper compiled in your kernel? How did you generate your .config file? _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
