Xen users - Sep 2008 - Xen 3.0.4 + CentOS5.2 "Could not mount root filesystem."

I''m trying to install Xen 3.0.4

But It couldn''t mount root filesystem.

I''m using the board, loads AMD SB750 chipset.



I''m guessing the reason that is the lack of sata driver in
2.6.16.33-xen.

So, when I copy libata and ata_piix driver from other driver from compatible
kernel source, could it be running well?

And, could you advice about copying drivers?

Did you build an initial ramdisk with mkinitrd (or mkinitramfs)?

Did you build xen and the kernel from source or did it come with CentOS?

Cheers,

Sure, I did.

I write the steps I followed.

1. Downlaod source 3.0.4 & extract
2. make world & make install
3. mkinitrd xeninitrd.img  2.6.16.33-xen
4. Set the Grub.conf

title Xen
root (hd0,0)
kernel /xen.gz
module /vmlinuz-xen  ro  root=/dev/VolGroup00 rhgb
module /xeninitrd.img

Hardware
 CPU : AMD Phenom 9550
 MainBoard : sb750 & 790x
 HDD : Western 6400aaks

Could you find some my mistakes or some clue?, why it doesn''t work

Thank you~ :)
