[Xen-users] Kernel panic while starting my guest domain
Hi
Ive installed Fedora core 6 and enabled virtualization support.
Now I tried to create guest os with scientific linux 3 image file (
slc3-root.img )
Logical volumes compnode,swap and module have been created with the
following steps
lvcreate -L10G -n compnode vg
lvcreate -L1G -n compswap vg
lvcreate -L1G -n compswap vg
mkdir /mnt/tmp
mount -o loop slc3-root.img /mnt/tmp
Also in /mnt/tmp/etc/fstab
/dev/sda6 / ext3 defaults 1 1
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sda8 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda6 /lib/modules ext2 defaults 0 1
My /etc/xen/xmdefconfig looks like
def vmid_check(var, val):
val = int(val)
if val <= 0:
raise ValueError
return val
#Define the ''vmid'' variable so that ''xm
create'' knows about it.
xm_vars.var(''vmid'', use="Virtual machine id. Integer
greater than 0.",
check=vmid_check)
#Check the defined variables have valid values..
xm_vars.check()
#General settings
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen"
memory = 128
gateway = "172.16.10.1"
extra = "fastboot"
vif = ['''']
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen.img"
if vmid == 1:
disk =
[''phy:vg/compnode,sda7,w'',''phy:vg/compswap,sda8,w'',
''phy:vg/modules,sda6,r'']
ip = "172.16.10.201"
vif=[''bridge=xenbr0'']
hostname = "compnode"
name = "compnode"
# Set root device.
root = "/dev/sda7 ro"
while creating the xen domain with command
xm create -c vmid=1
Im getting the kernel panic error..
Is there any thing wrong with my configurations??
Here is my Error
Creating root device.
