Re: [Xen-users] blkfront problems with 3.1.0



Sorry for the noise, a pristine 3.1.0 source tree solved the problem.

Hello,

I have a 64-bit Xen-3.1.0 dom0, on which I would like to run a 32-bit domU. Kernel and userland for dom0 was compiled on a 64-bit host machine, kernel for the domU was compiled on an another 32-bit host, using stock kernel config at the latter. At boot time, the following error happens:

[2318558.522636] register_blkdev: cannot get major 8 for sd

[2318568.606166] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

It can be seen that netfront registers itself successfully, only blkfront has problems with accessing the block backend. Other 64-bit domUs run fine, even with kernel used back from 3.0.4, namely 2.6.16.33-xen.

Anyone can shed some light on this? (32-bit domU is a requirement now.)
