Thread-topic: dsl iso and xen

Hi

Im trying to get DSL(damm small linux) to run in Xen, DSL is a small live-iso with linux.

I have made a simple configuration file, se below:

 

  <configuration file>

  kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen"

  memory = 64

  name = 'dsl'

  disk = ['file:/tmp/dsl-3.3.iso,sda2,w']

  root = "/dev/sda2 ro"

  <configuration file>

 

 

The filesystem on the Xen server is shown below.

 

  da10:/etc/xen/vm # df -h

  Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

  /dev/sda2             9.6G  4.2G  5.4G  45% /

  udev                  232M  164K  231M   1% /dev

 

And the DSL-iso is laying in /tmp(sda2)

 

  da10:/etc/xen/vm # ls -l /tmp/dsl-3.3.iso

  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 52056064 May  8  2007 /tmp/dsl-3.3.iso

 

Ill then starts up the domain with:

 

  xm create /etc/xen/vm/dsl -c

 

The domain starts up, but I get a kernel panic from the dsl-domain

 

  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)

 

Can anyone see what I have done wrong?

 

Regards Per Valentin Lund
