[Xen-users] Xen 3.1.4-x86_64: Installation from Binary tarball
Hi, I have installed Xen 3.1.4 from Binary tarball for x86_64 SMP platform from here: http://xen.org/download/dl_314tarballs.html Af installing, as I try to start the xend service, it produces this error: # /etc/init.d/xend start grep: /proc/xen/capabilities: No such file or directory It seems that some configuration are still missing, can somebody point out which are those?

Hi Jerry,
Thanks for your reply. Indeed my machine is not booting up with xen kernal.
I checked at the serial out put and apparently its failing with error "fail
to find the file" and its stuck on the kernel line of the grub.conf. Here
is
the grub entry I got for my machine which have / mounted on /dev/sda2 and
/boot mounted on /dev/sda1
title Xen 3.1 / XenLinux 2.6
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/xen-3.gz console=vga
       module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen root=/dev/sda2 ro console=tty0
       module /boot/initrd-2.6.18-xen.img
Any ideas?
Cheers
Omer

If /boot is on /dev/sda1 while / is on /dev/sda2, then your grub entry should
look like this:
title Xen 3.1 / XenLinux 2.6
            root (hd0,0)
            kernel /xen-3.gz console=vga
            module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen root=/dev/sda2 ro console=tty0
            module /initrd-2.6.18-xen.img
