[Xen-users] Problem with making a guest of CentOS 5 image of jailtime.

["Jim van Wel" <jim@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have a strange problem with the CentOS 5 package on jailtime. All the
other images work just fine, but this one is not. Now i'm wondering why.
Here is the output.

xen.cfg:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen_3.1.0"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18-xen_3.1.0.img"
memory = 512
name = "alleenregistratie.nl"
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:7C:45:E1, vifname=alleenregistratie' ]
#dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = ['file:/home/registratie/centos5/centos.5-0.img,sda1,w',
'file:/home/registratie/centos5/centos.swap,sda2,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

Starting it gives this error:

[root@vps1 xen]# xm create -c /etc/xen/alleenregistratie.nl.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/alleenregistratie.nl.cfg".
Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.

I also have seen this post:

http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2007-05/msg00035.html

But when I try to make a new initrd like this:

mkinitrd -v -f --with=xennet --preload=xenblk /boot/xen-initrd.img
2.6.18-xen_3.1.0

I get:

Creating initramfs
Looking for deps of module xenblk
No module xenblk found for kernel 2.6.18-xen_3.1.0, aborting.

And this is really frustrating, because on Fedora 6 and RedHat 5 this
command is working very well. I'm missing some modules. So need I do some
other command?
Help is appreciated.

I'm using RHEL 4.5 with XEN 3.1 packages of:
