Re: [Xen-users] Xen 3.0.2 on debian sarge issue

[Yura Pismerov <y.pismerov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

devfs was dropped from the kernel as of version 2.6.13.
Xen 3.0.2 uses 2.6.16, and your Debian is trying to boot the initrd
image built on the old kernel that had devfs - hence the problem.
What I suggest is configure the kernel to have all the modules required
fro boot (specifically your scsi/sata/whatever drivers) built in, rather
than modules, then
get rid of the initrd (remove module /boot/initrd-2.6.16-xen.img from
grub config).
As for how to configure Xen kernel, read README - search for
configure/build/install)
