Hi,
I think should hopefully be able to boot it with your dom0 kernel and
initrd by copying your kernel modules from /lib/modules on dom0 to the
domU. Then its just a case of seting up a config file (and possibly the
networking config in your domU) which basicaly would look like.
# -*- mode: python; -*-
kernel = "/boot/<dom0-kernel>"
ramdisk = "/boot/<dom0-initrd>"
memory = 128
name = "<dom-name>"
vif = [''bridge=xenbr0'']
disk =
[''file:/<path/to/domU.img>,hda1,w'',''file:</path/to/domU-swap.img>,hda2,w'']
root = "/dev/hda1 ro"
extra = "4
just replace anything including and between < > and make sure you pass
the disk options that reflect the fstab (hda1 etc..) in your domU and
the root= is correct.
regards.
Geoff.
