[Xen-users] Re: XEN dom0 - mount: could not find filestystem '/dev/root'.

["Anand Gupta" <xen.mails@xxxxxxxxx>]

After you compiled and installed xen, just do the below

depmod -a 2.6.18-xen

mkinitrd -v -f --with=aacraid --with=sd_mod --with=scsi_mod initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen

Move the initrd image to /boot and modify your 
grub.conf to load the new initrd in the xen kernel part.

See if this helps.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init


I have done a source build for Xen 3.1 and created initrd image after a successfull build for dom0.
But it is giving kernel panic when it buits dom0

I have created initrd image using below commands (MIND IT : I HAVE IDE HARD DISK) and tried with each one.. but no help.

mkinitrd -v -f --with=aacraid --with=sd_mod --with=scsi_mod initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen
mkinitrd -v -f --force-ide-probe --fstab=/etc/fstab initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen
mkinitrd -v -f --omit-scsi-modules initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen
mkinitrd -v -f --with=xennet --preload=xenblk initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen
 mkinitrd -v -f --force-ide-probe --fstab=/etc/fstab initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen

Something similar to these.
