Good question, I do not know atm. I will google for it.

Yes I did, since I have scsi I tried sda1 too but no luck
Then again I am a bit confuse on what to use with 'file:....'
Do I point to the mountpoint or the ttylinyx-xen image file? Again tried 
both, but no luck.
Also, the line 'root = "/dev/md1"' should this be point to the real host 
device which in my case is /dev/md1?
Very confused, been trying this for ages now....

TIA
