Subject: Newbie boot problem (root on logical volume?)
Date: Fri, 04 Feb 2005 10:31:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <420332C5.7080800@rolandpj.com> (raw)

Hi all

Sorry for the newbie question.

I have installed xen-2.0.3 binary release over Fedora Core 3 2.6.9.

Xen boots, and XenLinux seems to start, but it can't find the root 
partition, eventually failing looking for an NFS root.

My root file system is on a logical volume:

    kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=/dev/VolGroup01/LogVol00

from the straight Fedora boot.

So, the xen version is:

    module /vmlinuz-2.6.10-xen0 root=/dev/VolGroup01/LogVol00 ro 
console=tty0

Do I have to do anything special to use the logical volume?

Or am I barking up completely the wrong tree.

Thanks for any help
Roland
