Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Question on Starting Centos52 DomU
Fajar:

I am running Ubuntu 7.10 as my Dom0. Xen 3.3.1 using the latest source code 
from the Xen.org download page. I realize that Ubuntu is a bit trickier than 
other Dom0 packages so I choose it on purpose. I was able to run Fedora last 
year and easily bring up DomU with the simple UI, etc so this time, I want to 
learn the hard way and do things by hand. 

I will look at initrd. Thanks.

Stephen

Probably incorrect initrd.

What dom0 are you using?
For beginners, it's a lot easier to use "native" methods. If it's
Centos or opensolaris dom0 the easiest thing is to install domU with
virt-install. IMHO jailtime.org images are for "expert" use :)
