Re: [Xen-users] Re: installation help for xen3.0.2-2 with linux-2.6.16 kernel

I just found this on one of the installation pages on xen-wiki :

"Copy the modules directory /lib/modules/2.6.<version>-xen to the /lib/modules directory of your VM and make an initrd with mkinitrd. # mkinitrd /boot/initrd-xen-3.0.img 2.6.<version>-xen" I did not do that. However I can not really understand what files to copy from and to where? Could someone give me some pointers on how to go about making my initrd?

I think this is referring to getting the modules in a domU. You can 'mkinitrd -o /boot/inird-xen-3.0.img 2.6.16-xen' and then add another module line to your grub menu.lst. It'll probably end up looking like this:

title       Xen 3.0
kernel      /boot/xen-3.0.gz dom0_mem=262144 com1=9600,8n1
module      /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/hda1 ro console=ttyS0
module      /boot/initrd-xen-3.0.img
boot
