Re: [Xen-users] frustrated with build problems
I have a similar problem. I am running Debian Lenny and the Xen kernel (2.6.18.8) is unable to recognize my hard drive (/root/sda1). What actually happens is that it drops me to the BusyBox shell.I have tried switching to IDE mode in BIOS but it didn't help.
The problem exists with both the stable kernel version for Xen 3.4.2 and the unstable version for Xen 4.0.0. However, it works with 2.6.26-2-xen-686 from Debian repositories but this kernel version doesn't support Xen 4... and this is what I actually need.
Hope someone knows how to help us!

Hi again,
Of course after ranting, the last build on Centos finished. I added to grub and rebooted. Just like with Ubuntu I can't get the system to find the drive. I have tried root=/dev/cciss/c0p01 and root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00. I checked and /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-xen/kernel/drivers/block/ contains cciss.ko. Is the problem not the HP RAID but maybe because of LVM? Any ideas as to how to troubleshoot this?
FYI the server is a HP DL380 G3 with the HP Smart Array 5i controller.
Thanks,
Dana

However when I put the new kernel in grub it will not boot as it can't find the root. I set root=/dev/cciss/c0p01 which should have worked. I tried by UUID, root=UUID=9da5323b-e47c-4367-bed0-2d2b53ba5a45 and still no joy. After six hours of every combo possible I gave up and threw a new set of drives in the machine and installed Centos 5.2.
