Re: [Xen-users] Fedora Core 5 boot problems
You're using the kernel from the binary tarball and the initrd from the
FC5 non-Xen kernel. To a first approximation kernel version and modules
(in the initrd) must match.

Hi
I had Xen 2.x running peacefully on FC4 .. sigh.
Yesterday I upgraded to FC5 and also downloaded and installed the new Xen
version 3.x from xensource.com .. I installed via the precompiled tarball.
My grub entries loook like this:
title Xen 3.0 (Fedora/XenLinux 2.6)
root (hd0,4)
kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=260000
module /vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/sda6 ro console=tty0
module /initrd-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.img
boot
My /etc/fstab looks like this:
/dev/sda6 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sda7 swap swap defaults 0 0
...
Fedora is installed on a SATA hard disk, partition /dev/sda6
Xen boots and then soon after reports a kernel panic and after a few seconds
reboots .. I was unable to get the messages before the last screen but managed
to capture the last messages on screen .. reported below.
...
Loading jbd.ko module
jbd: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
insmod: error inserting /lib/jbd.ko: -1 invalid module format
Loading ext3.ko module
ext3: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
insmod: error inserting /lib/ext3.ko: -1 invalid module format
Creating root device
Mounting root filesystem
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
Setting up other filesystems
Setting up new root fs
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory
no fstab.sys, mounting internal defaults
setuproot: error mounting /proc: no such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys: no such file or directory
Switching to new root and running init
unmounting old /dev
unmounting old /proc
unmounting old /sys
switchroot: mount failed: no such file or directory
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill Init:
And then the system quickly reboots.
Any help to fix this is appreciated.

Srini
