Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.  Try passing init= option to
kernel.

(adding 'init=/sbin/init' to extras in the config makes no difference)

Note that no disks are found.  This is why I think I need an initrd with the
modules for the SCSI control (LSI MPT Fusion).

Note also that after the panic, a 'xm list' shows vm1 *not* in a crashed
state, is this correct?

 Name                              ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State  Time(s)
Domain-0                           0      251     1 r-----    16.8
vm1                                6      256     1 r-----    22.9


My config is:
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU"
memory = 256
name = "vm1"
vcpus = 1
disk = [ 'phy:rootvg/xen_vm1,sda1,w' ]
ip = "172.30.13.120"
netmask = "255.255.255.0"
gateway = "172.30.13.254"
hostname = "vm1"
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
extra = "1"
on_crash    = 'destroy'


I had a troll through the linux-2.6.12-xenU tree under xen-3.0.0 src and
found that the kernel config has PCI disabled, why is this?


Thanks

CC
