Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Debian 6 as Dom0 not booting on Xen 4.1.1
Hi, 

Could it be it's not detecting your disk controllers?

What are you using?

Thanks

Hello Ian,

Thanks for your replay! I have just done the same things you did and nothing changed.
After booting Xen the same error appears.

I dare to think it is something related either to a .deb package missing or a kernel config
option I missed. But what would they be if those can be my mistakes?

Thank you

Tony.

Hi,

 

I had this and couldn’t figure out what is was.  In the end I removed the modules from /lib/modules and the kernel files in /boot then reinstalled and made the new initrd.  Worked after.

 

Thanks

 

Ian

Subject: [Xen-users] Debian 6 as Dom0 not booting on Xen 4.1.1

 

Hi everyone,

I have compiled and installed Linux 3.0.0 and Xen 4.1.1 on Debian Squeeze, both from source and enabling this two options:

CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y
CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT=y

The problem arises when booting Xen. After its startup, it seems that it cannot correctly load Dom0 devices since it says:

Loading, please wait...
Mount: mounting none on /dev failed: No such device
w: devtmpfs not available, falling back to tmpfs for /dev
udevd[972]: Worker [978] unexpectedly returned with status 0x0100

Anyone has an idea of what I am doing wrong? Does it need any package or do I need to rebuild initramfs?

Thank you in advance,
Tony.
