Hello everyone! I''m trying to install RHAS 4.0 as a domU image on Xen. Almost everything is working now, but it already need to manual interaction to boot. It doesn''t find the sda1 disk (a file.img on dom0) [/sbin/fsck.ext3 (1) -- /] fsck.ext3 -a /dev/sda1 /dev/sda1: The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device> ext2fs_check_if_mount: Input/output error while determining whether /dev/sda1 is mounted. fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sda1 [FAILED] *** An error occurred during the file system check. *** Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot *** when you leave the shell. Give root password for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue): But if as root, i MAKEDEV the sda1, remount it on / and run "init 3" almost everything works properly. Anyone knows how to resolve this? Ghe Rivero PD:- Is there any place with domU images of different systems? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Udev is not yet running when mounting the root partition, so you need to have an initrd containing the dev entries. Read here: (6.2. Why does Fedora Core 3 stop working...) http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenFaq#head-ea8b39d71e49cc16d287257de4c482f99d883097 You have to add a ramdisk="/boot/..." to your domain configuration file. The initrd file must contain the device nodes.

Are you booting with udev? Under fc3, I had to run: mknod /etc/udev/devices/sda b 8 0 mknod /etc/udev/devices/sda1 b 8 1 etc, so that when it booted, it automagically created the sda devices. Is that the case here? -Tim -- Timothy Doyle CEO Quantact Hosting Solutions, Inc.
