Re: [Xen-users] xen compilation problem

Hi,

I might be missing some silly thing. Please help me out to get the
source compiled.

OS : RHEL 5.2   and   CentOS 5.2

Note in RHEL5.2 or centos5.2 the xen and kernel-xen that come
with the distro already work pretty good--the rpm says xen 3.0.3
but it is really (mostly) xen 3.1.2 on the inside, that's what the
dmesg prints out.  It may be good enough so you don't have to recompile.



I tried xen-3.3.0 and linux-2.6.18.8.hg kernel but failed to compile
successfully and gave some compilation errors.

Then, i tried on Xen 3.0.3_0 and linux-2.6.16.29 kernel, which
compiled sucessfully. then i followed whole steps. But while booting
into Xen Kernel i got these errors:

.
.
.
.
Loading ata_piix.ko module
Waiting for driver initialization.
Creating root device.
Mounting root filesystem.
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
Setting up other filesystems.
Setting up new root fs
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory
no fstab.sys , mounting internal defaults
setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory
Switching to new root and running init.
unmounting old /dev
unmounting old /proc
unmounting old /sys
switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory
Booting has failed.

This is likely because you did not make a new initrd.img
from the new kernel to boot the domU .

depmod 2.6.16.29
mkinitrd /path/to/yourinitrd.img 2.6.16.29





Also, during Compilation with xen 3.3.0 with linux-2.6.18-xen.hg,  i
got these compilation errors irrespective of any OS platform. I am
always getting these errors.

I also tried to download linux-2.6.18-xen.hg 2-3 times, hoping i may
get some updates but it didn't worked.
