I am trying to get Xen running on Fedora 6, which I thought would be easy, but I guess not. I am using the standard image from jailtime.org and my domU configuration file is below. I am using the same kernel of the host itself.
------------
kernel = '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen'
ramdisk = '/boot/initrd-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen.img'
memory = 512
name = 'test.vm'
vif = ['vifname=vif-test0, mac=aa:00:f6:f4:06:1a']
vnc = 0
vncviewer = 0
serial = 'pty'
disk = ['file:/home/test.vm//root.img,sda1,w', 'file:/home/test.vm//vm.swap,sda2,w']
root = '/dev/sda1 ro'

--------------------------
The above is the error I got. It seems the initrd is searching for volGroup00, which is how the '/' of the HOST is mounted, but I have explicitly given 'root =' in the config file. So I am confused. Is there anyone here who has experienced this beforehand?
Thanks in advance.
