Hi All,
I am trying to compile Xen 3.3.0 source code which downloads updates from
mercurial repository.
I am trying to modify the CPU scheduler, but before i make any changes i
need to test it by installing it from source.
OS: Fedora 8 Linux
I compiled the source code by using
[root@localhost xen-3.3.0]# make world
[root@localhost xen-3.3.0]# make install
[root@localhost xen-3.3.0]# depmod 2.6.18.8-xen
[root@localhost xen-3.3.0]# mkinitrd initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img 2.6.18.8-xen
then i moved "initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img" to /boot
edited the grub.conf
title WindowsXP
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
title Fedora-base (2.6.23.1-42.fc8)
root (hd0,5)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.23.1-42.fc8 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.23.1-42.fc8.img
title Fedora (2.6.21-2950.fc8xen)
root (hd0,5)
kernel /xen.gz-2.6.21-2950.fc8
module /vmlinuz-2.6.21-2950.fc8xen ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
module /initrd-2.6.21-2950.fc8xen.img
title Source Compiled Xen - 3rd March 2009 (2.6.18.8-xen)
root (hd0,5)
kernel /xen-3.3.0.gz
#module /vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen ro root=/dev/sda8 console=tty0 1
module /vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen ro root=LABEL=/ console=tty0
module /initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img
When i select 4th option, i get these messages while booting,
(XEN) *** LOADING DOMAIN 0 ***
.

.
(XEN) Dom0 has maximum 1 VCPUs
(XEN) Initrd len 0x6e8600, start ar 0xc0460000
(XEN) Scrubbing Free RAM: .........done.
(XEN) Xen trace buffers: disabled
Red Hat nash version 6.0.19 starting
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /proc : No such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys : No such file or directory
switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory
After this the system hangs....
it seems it is unable to mount root filesystem. What changes needs to be
done to make things work.
Any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
