[Xen-users] Boot into dom0 "Failed to parse block device name"




I am trying to install the binary version of xen 3.1.

When I boot, after some console output, I get the following:

:: Loading Initramfs
scsi_mod: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
SCSI subsystem intialized
:: Running Hook [udev]
:: Loading udev...input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/inpt/input0
done.

done.

:: Loading root filesystem module...
Attempting to create root device '/dev/sda3'

Root device '/dev/sda3' doesn't exist, attempting to create it
ERROR: Failed to parse block device name for '/dev/sda3'
ERROR: Unable to create/detect root device '/dev/sda3'
Dropping to a recovery shell... type 'exit' to reboot



My grub menu is:
timeout 5
default 0
color light-blue/black light-cyan/blue

# (0) Arch Linux
title Arche Linux
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda3 ro
initrd /kernel26.img

# (1) Xen 3.1

root (hd0,0)
kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=524288
module /vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/sda3 ro
module /kernel26xenB.img

My fstab is:
none  /dev/pts   devpts   defaults   0 0
none  /dev/shm   tmpfs    defaults   0 0

/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom   iso9660  ro,user,noauto,unhide  0 0

/dev/sda2 swap          swap     defaults               0 0
/dev/sda3 /             ext2     defaults               0 1
/dev/sda4 /home         ext2     defaults               0 1



Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris....
