Hello everyone. As I am new to this group I''ll be short and try to explain what I''m doing with enough detail so that someone might be able to help me out. First off I have successfully compiled xen-unstable and downloaded Jeremy''s pvops kernel, 2.6.31.6. I have configured it to the best of my ability and run built and installed it. I have executed mkinitrd, at first this complained about ahci and two usb modules missing. I have since found the CONFIG settings to compile them as modules and now no errors. I am running Centos 5.3 64bit and have root installed on a LVM Group and a LV that''s formatted with ext3. My problem is that the kernel and initrd can''t seem to find my LVM Group or LV''s, naturally. I am at a loss, since I don''t have a serial port or anyway of seeing anything during boot, it''s scrolling a bunch of stuff accross the screen. How can I troubleshoot this? Do I need to extract the initrd img file and start looking at the init scripts to see if it''s not loading LVM or something like that? Any pointers would be great!

CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2=y are the two settings you were thinking about. I''ll recompile and try them tonight. Update in a few hours.:) Mike _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Any pointers would be great! >use "mkinitrd -v" instead of just "mkinitrd". It''ll show what it does/generates :) -- Pasi _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
