Re: [Xen-users] Xen boot failed while mount root FS.

I have the same sata hard drive for which i had to create initrd images. The reason why your second entry is not working is probably because of your sata drivers.

Just run the mkinitrd to create a new initrd. I compiled my sata drivers statically in the kernel and then used --built-in=ata_piix with mkinitrd to specify that its already built in the kernel.

The above helped me boot up the xen kernel, try it out and see if it works for you.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean - this is my grub config - the first
one works, the second one doesn't:

title Linux-2.6.11-skas
        root (hd0,1)  # /dev/sda2
        kernel /boot/bzImage-2.6.11-skas root=/dev/sda2

title Xen 3.0 / XenLinux 2.6 (root=/dev/sda2)
        root (hd0,1)  # /dev/sda2
        kernel /boot/xen-3.0.gz dom0_mem=524288
        module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen0 root=/dev/sda2 ro console=tty0

Cheers,
Adam.
