Xen project Mailing List

If /boot is on /dev/sda1 while / is on /dev/sda2, then your grub entry should look like this:

title Xen 3.1 / XenLinux 2.6

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ root (hd0,0)

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ kernel /xen-3.gz console=vga

ÂÂÂÂ module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen root=/dev/sda2 ro console=tty0

ÂÂÂÂ module /initrd-2.6.18-xen.img

Hi Jerry,

Thanks for your reply. Indeed my machine is not booting up with xen kernal. I checked at the serial out put and apparently its failing with error "fail to find the file" and its stuck on the kernel line of the grub.conf. Here is the grub entry I got for my machine which have / mounted on /dev/sda2 and /boot mounted on /dev/sda1

title Xen 3.1 / XenLinux 2.6

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ root (hd0,0)

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ kernel /boot/xen-3.gz console=vga

ÂÂÂÂ module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen root=/dev/sda2 ro console=tty0

ÂÂÂÂ module /boot/initrd-2.6.18-xen.img

Any ideas?

Cheers

Omer

You haven't booted using Xen. See 2. in the README
