I am trying to start a Centos4 domainU that I''ve installed on a Centos4 dom0. I get the following: Mounting root filesystem mount: missing mount point mount: error 2 mounting none Switching to new root switchroot: mount failed: 22 umount /initrd/dev failed: 2 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! The relevant config file is (/etc/xen/vm02.cfg) is: kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-xenU" memory = 128 name = "Domain02" dhcp = "dhcp" disk = [ ''file:/export/xen/xen1,hdc1,w'',''file:/export/xen/swap.img,hdc2,w'' ] root = "/dev/hdc1 ro" ramdisk = "/mnt/xen1/boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.img" Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I''m doing wrong?

If so, it would appear that it doesn''t like the new kernel, and doesn''t want to play along.> ramdisk = "/mnt/xen1/boot/initrd-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.img" > > Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I''m doing wrong?Instead of loading an initrd from the wrong kernel, just add /dev/null and /dev/console device nodes in the domU''s root filesystem, comment out the initrd, and then boot the domU. It should "just work" then. -- Derrik Pates demon@devrandom.net _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
