[Xen-users] Re: No filesystem could mount root, tried: cramfs .....

["Peter Curran" <pyc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Igor et All,
Thanks. Please stay with me a bit; I'm new in this enviroment. After correctiong
the disk setup in g2.conf:
   disk = ['phy:/dev/cciss/c0d0p5,hda1,w']
   root = "/dev/hda1 ro"

which eliminated the error ("Error: int argument required" on Debian Etch?), the
processing continued until at this point/error:
"
Registering block device major 8
No filesystem could mount root, tried: cramfs
kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknow-block(8,1)
"

Could you give some light on this also?
There are many posts about this problem on the internet but I couldn't fine any
clear answer.
thank you for you attention
