Hi List,
 
i will boot debian domU, and i became the following errors:
 
# VFS: Cannot open root device "sda2" or unknown-block(0,0)
# Please append a correct "root=" boot option
# Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
 
my domU config:
 
# disk = ["file:/home/xen/vps/v01/hdd.img,sda2,w"]
# root = "/dev/sda2"
 
The filesystem of the image is ext3.
 
the /etc/fstab of the Hostsystem (dom0) says:
 
# /dev/sda2    /                 ext3    ....
# /dev/sda1    none              swap  ....
 
mhh, i have no idea where the problem is :)
 
The Xen Kernel is Dom0 and DomU in one and dom0 is
running fine.
 
Have anybody an Idea?
 
Many thanks!
Maybee
