[Xen-users] Error starting DomU (Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found)
Hi, I am not able to start a new domainU on FC5. To start the new domain I give command xm create -c domU.conf vmid=1. This gives me the following error: VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly. Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. Call Trace: <ffffffff80128d62>{panic+134} <ffffffff801083a6>{init+908} <ffffffff8010b7aa>{child_rip+8} <ffffffff8010801a>{init+0} <ffffffff8010b7a2>{child_rip+0} The configuration that I am using: The config file for domU - domU.conf contains: kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU" memory = 64 name = "ExampleDomain" vif = [ '''' ] disk = [ ''file:/srv/vm2.img,sda1,w'' ] root = "/dev/sda1 ro" extra = "4" I created the vm2.img file and copied /{bin, dev, etc, lib, root, sbin, usr, var} from the domain0. In vm2.img, /etc/fstab file contains: /dev/sda1 / ext3 defaults 1 1 #/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 #/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 In dom0, /boot contains: config-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 System.map-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 config-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU System.map-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 initrd-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.img vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU initrd-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xenU.img xen.gz-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 xen-syms-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 It would be great if you could point out where am I making mistakes.
