Hi folks, I try compiling the current Xen stable (3.0.2) on Debian Sarge. dom0 is running fine, but domU kernel panics with "unable to mount root fs on unknown-block". I have compiled scsi block dev in and use "phy:/dev/LVMvg01/XenTest-boot,sda1,w" as my root device. root config is also given: root="/dev/sda1 ro". I have copied the compiled kernel modules to /lib/modules of the domU file system, so loading the modules should not be an issue. Do I have to setup an initrd file system for domU? I did not have to with Xen 2.x (this is my first 3.x experience for quite a long time). I have googled the world an searched the list archives but found nothing enlightening. Any hint or help is appreciated. Thanks, Dirk _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Re: [Xen-users] unable to mount foot fs on unknown-block - SOLVED
Hi folks, sorry to have wasted time and ressources - it was just a typo. I had disc=[''phy:/dev/LVMvg01/XenTestBoot,sda1,w'', ... instead of disk=[''phy:/dev/LVMvg01/XenTestBoot,sda1,w'', ... Typically german mistake, I guess. :-( Dirk Dirk H.
