Dear all, I''ve installed Xen 3.0.1 on my laptop and dom0 is boot normaly execpt it''s could not using X, i haven''t trying to boot guest OS. my laptop configuration is Toshiba Portege R150 with Debian Sarge on it. And then I installed same version of Xen into our server with Debian Sarge and Kernel 2.4. Booting dom0 is not success , xen always trying look dor NFS root and then request for floopy , anybody experience with this syndrome ? In this server I use hde as the harddisk and boot partition is hde1 and root partition at hde10 , is this the problem for Xen ?

Once i changed the grub menu.lst file from: module /boot/xen-linux-2.6.12.6-xen root=/dev/hda1 ro to.. module /boot/xen-linux-2.6.12.6-xen root=/dev/sda1 ro it worked fine. Here is the full grub kernel options BTW: title Xen 3.0.0 - Linux 2.6.12.6-xen kernel /boot/xen-3.0.1.gz dom0_mem=262144 module /boot/xen-linux-2.6.12.6-xen root=/dev/sda1 ro module /boot/xen-modules-2.6.12.6-xen Dont know if this is the same issue for you, but this is how i got it working.

Now I must thinking the compatibility with original distro (debian) which knowing the disk as /dev/hde because I have to modify the fstab ( I use multiple partition for my system).
