Hi, Tom

I recently got SUSE-Xen running. During the trial I got similar error:

"kernel panic - not syncing: VFS:
Unable tomount root fs on unknown-block (3, 1)"

This was fixed when I add to xen-config file this line:

# Optional ramdisk.
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-xen"

It might be commented out if you use the config file example "xmexample1".

Hello

My hardware env. is, I think, also common....

CPU: Celeron with socket 478
MotherBoard:Intel BOXD865PERLK
Graphic: ATI Radeon 7200
LAN: Intel pro +100
and 1.5G DDR.

I have something to remember. When I installed SUSE-Xen package into
SUSE afterwards, I could not see Xen Option in GRUB (Maybe I did
something wrong?) The most easiest way to introduce Xen is to install
the Xen package with the first OS installation.
