Hi All,

        I have installed Fedora Core 6 on /dev/hda1 and also on /dev/hda2 and swap on /dev/hda3.

        I boot in the FC6 XEN kernel installed in /dev/hda1. However while trying to access the FC6 domU in /dev/hda2, it fails to boot into it and exits out cleanly. Did anybody get this combination working?

        My /etc/xen/fc6 file is as follows:
                 kernel = '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen'
                 ramdisk = '/boot/initrd-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen'
                 memory = 200
                 name = 'fc6guest'
                 disk = ['phy:hda2,hda2,w', 'phy:hda3,hda3,w']     
                 root = '/dev/hda2 ro'
                 vif = ['']

        I also tried out using pygrub. Here it exited with the error message:
                Error: (22, 'invalid argument')
       The config file was as follows:
                 name = 'fc6guest'
                 memory = 200
                 bootloader = '/usr/bin/pygrub'
                 disk = ['phy:hda2,hda2,w', 'phy:hda3,hda3,w']     
                 root = '/dev/hda2 ro'
                 vif = ['']

        I did get Debian to work when it was both domU and dom0 with similar configuration but without pygrub.


Thanks,
Chirag
