Hi *, I succesfully installed Xen 2.0.7 on Debian Sarge 3.1, when I try to boot Xen0 kernel, I obtain this error: Root-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up. VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy. VFS: Insert root floppy and press ENTER "/" is on a software RAID5 (/dev/md1), ext3 fs "/boot" is on a software RAID1 (/dev/md0), ext3 fs GRUB CONF: title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.11-xen0 kernel /xen-2.0.7.gz dom0_mem=1000000 module /vmlinuz-2.6.11.12-xen0 root=/dev/md1 ro console=tty0 What could be the problem? -- Davide Corio davide.corio@redomino.com Redomino S.r.l.

I compiled the module, but the problem persists. I''m reading that Xen doesn''t like this controller. is it true? -- Davide Corio davide.corio@redomino.com Redomino S.r.l.

Did you put the module in the initrd? /Ernst _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

The system boots and then freezes trying to access the controller. I read something about a patch included in the 2.6.12.5, so i''m installing xen-unstable to check if the problem remains -- Davide Corio davide.corio@redomino.com Redomino S.r.l.
