[Xen-users] Xen DomU boot issue with normal standard kernel
hi all,
installed oracle linux 5.1 as DomU guest in Dom0(rhel5, xen 3.0) with storage
configured using lvm.
following config file to install guest:
kernel = "/xenImg/oracle51xen/vmlinuz"
ramdisk = "/xenImg/oracle51xen/initrd.img"
memory = 256
name = "oracleos5.1"
vif = [ ''mac=00:16:3e:01:26:33, bridge=xenbr0'' ]
disk = [ ''phy:vg01/xenrootvol,xvda,w'' ]
extra="askmethod text"
following config file to start guest:
memory = 256
name = "oracleos5.1"
vif = [ ''mac=00:16:3e:01:26:33, bridge=xenbr0'' ]
disk = [ ''phy:vg01/xenrootvol,xvda,w'' ]
bootloader="/usr/bin/pygrub"
now, when i start guest using second config file, oracle linux has three kernel
mentioned:
Enterprise Linux-pae (2.6.18-53.el5PAE)
Enterprise Linux-xen (2.6.18-53.el5xen)
Enterprise Linux-base (2.6.18-53.el5)
only 2(xen) entry work other(1,3), show Error: (22, ''Invalid
argument'').
Is it mean that only xen kernel can be booted on to a DomU or am i doing
something wrong. Am i doing any mistake here or this is limitation of xen.
thanks,
rajnish
