I was using xen3.0 on rhel5, but had issues with installing 2k3, so i
tried upgrading to 3.1 .

found only the tarball on xensource, used the spec file and modified it
for x86_64 .


after booting the initrd said: no volume groups found (they clearly should
be there).

This is the menu.lst part:

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux Xen Server (2.6.18-3.1.0)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /xen-3.1.0.gz dom0_mem=393216
        module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen_3.1.0 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
rhgb quiet
        module /initrd-2.6.18-xen_3.1.0.img


this was the old one:

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (2.6.18-8.1.8.el5xen)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5 dom0_mem=393216
        module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5xen ro
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet
        module /initrd-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5xen.img



any idea what it is? clearly the initrd isn't the problem or the kernel...

the only thing i can think of, is that xen-3.1.0.gz would have virtualised
the device into /dev/hdc or something ...
