[Xen-devel] SCSI disks working?

["Tvrtko A. Uršulin" <tvrtko@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello to all!

I was active here few month ago when I was playing with xeno-1.0 and was very 
happy with it. Now I managed to find some time and one solid machine to try 
to make some xeno-1.2 production tests.

Server is HP tc2120 with aic7xxx SCSI controller. 

I have cloned xeno-1.2, built it and installed it to a working installation. 
But xenolinux fails to boot ending with: 

root_device_name = sda3
kmod: failed to exec .... block-major-8, errno = 2
VFS: Cannot opet root device "sda3" or 08:03
Please append a correct "root=" boot option

However, when booted to standard linux kernel the setup is: (see below)

So, are there any issues with this SCSI controller or disks in general?
