Re: [Xen-users] Why creating DomU failed (seems it is due to LVM)

Looks like many people have had the same problem for months. It is not
limited to FC5-6 or CentOS, looks like people with SUSE and Debian have
many similar problems.

You don't have to know much about a kernel to get it to work.  Start
fresh with a very plain dom0.  Don't use an initrd for _anything_.
initrds are only good for dynamic kernel configuration on unknown
hardware setups (great for distros) and certain network booting
configurations.


Hi,

Sound simple BUT it is not. I did with RPM and by compiling from source.

I never succeeded in starting any dom0 OR domU without an initrd as stated by many.
With an initrd it worked fine with old versions of Xen (3.0.2 etc.).

Thanks anyway.
