Using 2.4 kernel in the domain U
Hello World

I m using Xen 2.0 and have got the linux-2.6 kernel
running successfull in domainU using the ttylinux
image. The configuration file for the same is as
follows

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6"
memory = 64
name = "ttylinux"
nics = 1
ip = "1.2.3.4"
disk = ['phy:/dev/loop1,sda1,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

NOTE: I am using the ttylinux image as loop device.

However when I try running a xenified 2.4.30 kernel
using the same configuration file and replace the
kernel parameter with "/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.30", I get
the following panic

VFS: Cannot open root device "sda1" or 08:01
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:01
<0>Rebooting in 1 seconds..

Any idea what might I be doing wrong?
Thank you.
