[Xen-users] Problem running Debian 5-0 from stacklet.com as DomU
Hi All, I am running "2.6.18-128.1.10.el5xen" kernel as Dom0 on the machine that has dual socket quad-core AMD Opteron and is running CentOS 5.3. Now I tried to start the Dom U on the machine and downloaded an image from stacklet.com. Here''s my config file. kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5xen" ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5xen.img" memory = "256" name = "debian.5-0" vcpus=1 vif = [''''] dhcp = "dhcp" disk = [''file:/opt/xen/debian-5.0/debian.5-0.x86.img,sda,w''] root = "/dev/sda ro" extra = ''xencons=tty'' When I do am ''xm create cfgfile -c'' everything seems to be loading correctly until i get this: USB Mass Storage support registered. device-mapper: uevent: version 1.0.3 device-mapper: ioctl: 4.11.5-ioctl (2007-12-12) initialised: dm-devel@redhat.com device-mapper: dm-raid45: initialized v0.2429 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! Strangely, the domu is running and I can see it running when I am doing xm list but I cannot do xm console because I get that Kernel Panic error. [root@vmtest debian-5.0]# xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 7660 8 r----- 448.1 debian.5-0 142 256 1 -b---- 0.3 I am sure it has got something to do with my ''disk'' and ''root'' options in the config file or it might have something to do with the fact that I am running both dom0 and dom U on the same node. But I am not able to figure out what it is even after trying lot of things from the previous threads on this topic. my fstab.sys: /dev/vg_root/lv_root / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/vg_root/lv_var /var ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/vg_root/lv_virt /virt ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/vg_root/lv_swap swap swap defaults 0 0 fdisk -l: Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80000000000 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9726 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 8 64228+ de Dell Utility /dev/sda2 * 9 270 2104515 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) /dev/sda3 271 283 104422+ 83 Linux /dev/sda4 284 9726 75850897+ 8e Linux LVM my grub.conf: default=1 imeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,2)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu serial --unit=1 --speed=57600 terminal --timeout=10 serial console title CentOS (2.6.18-128.2.1.el5xen) root (hd0,2) kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5 com2=57600n8 console=com2,vga sched=sedf module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5xen ro root=/dev/vg_root/lv_root selinux=0 console=tty0 console=ttyS1,57600n8 selinux=0 module /initrd-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5xen.img title CentOS (2.6.18-128.1.10.el5xen) root (hd0,2) kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 com2=57600n8 console=com2,vga sched=sedf module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5xen ro root=/dev/vg_root/lv_root selinux=0 console=tty0 console=ttyS1,57600n8 selinux=0 module /initrd-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5xen.img title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.22.el5xen) root (hd0,2) kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5 com2=57600n8 console=com2,vga sched=sedf module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5xen ro root=/dev/vg_root/lv_root selinux=0 console=tty0 console=ttyS1,57600n8 selinux=0 module /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5xen.img title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.13.el5xen) root (hd0,2) kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-92.1.13.el5 module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.13.el5xen ro root=/dev/vg_root/lv_root selinux=0 module /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.13.el5xen.img title Other rootnoverify (hd0,1) chainloader +1t Can someone please tell me where I am going wrong?
