I''ve installed xen using the binaries (yum install kernel-xen0) on fc5
however the xen kernel crashes upon boot. However, Fc5 installed on the same
athlon dual core boots without a problem. The binaries are version 2.6.17.
The system is running on sata disks that are raided using the built in
motherboard raid controller.
Here is a capture of the xen attempted boot up.
(XEN) *** Serial input -> DOM0 (type ''CTRL-a'' three times
to switch input to Xen).
(XEN) (file=io_apic.c, line=2079)
(XEN) ioapic_guest_write: apic=0, pin=0, old_irq=-1, new_irq=0
(XEN) ioapic_guest_write: old_entry=00010000, new_entry=000009f0
(XEN) ioapic_guest_write: Installing bogus unmasked IO-APIC entry!
(XEN) (file=io_apic.c, line=2079)

(XEN) ioapic_guest_write: old_entry=00010000, new_entry=00000998
(XEN) ioapic_guest_write: Installing bogus unmasked IO-APIC entry!
PCI: BIOS Bug: MCFG area is not E820-reserved
PCI: Not using MMCONFIG.
i8042.c: Can''t read CTR while initializing i8042.
(XEN) (file=dom0_ops.c, line=396) Domain 0 says that IO-APIC REGSEL is good
device-mapper: dm-stripe: Target length not divisible by chunk size
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
(XEN) Domain 0 crashed: rebooting machine in 5 seconds.
I''m suspecting that the raid setup is causing me problems, so my
question is what kernel options would I need to change in order to resolve this?
I''ve already tried mkinitrd, but it built exactly the same ramdisk as
what''s installed.
For extra info, when I boot into ''normal'' linux the disks are
mounted as /dev/dm-2, /dev/dm-3 etc.
Any help would be appreciated as I bought this machine specifically for xen.
