Hello
I have got a problem booting a DomU on Linux Fedora Core 6 (kernel
2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen)
I did the following operations :
1) dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/xen/vm1 bs=1k seek=6144k count=1
2) mkfs.ext3 /home/xen/vm1
3) mount -o loop /home/xen/vm1 /mnt
4) cp -ax /{root,dev,var,etc,usr,bin,sbin,lib,boot} /mnt
5) mkdir -m 755 /mnt/{proc,sys,home,tmp,mnt}
6) DomU fstab :
/dev/sdb1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
7) cat > /etc/xen/vm1
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6xen"
memory = 512
name = 'vm1'
vif = [ '' ]
disk = [ 'file:/home/xen/vm1,sdb1,w' ]
root = '/dev/sdb1 ro'
extra = 'ro selinux=0 3'
8) When I launch :
xm create -c vm1
I get the following error message :
----
VFS: Cannot open root device "sdb1" or unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0)
----
I tried several devices but I got the same message
Any advice ?
Thanks in advance.
