Re: pygrub cannot find kernel

["Fong Vang" <sudoyang@xxxxxxxxx>]

pygrub wasn't able to find the kernel so I mounted the image and copied out the kernel and ramdisk.  It still didn't work with this kernel and ramdisk -- cannot find root device (I added a root= line).  I had to recreate a new ramdisk using mkinitrd before I could boot this system.  For now, this is good enough.  I'll have to go back and dig deeper at a later time.

Thank you for the response, though.

No, this:

is a curses error. How are you creating the domain? Do you happen to use
"xm create -c" over SSH? If so, could you try to create the domain with
"xm create" (without -c), and attach the console to the domain later
with "xm console"?
