RE: [Xen-users] NFS root in domU

[Maxim Rozin <maxim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Adam,

Thank you for the reply.
I used rpm's to install xen, so I did not compile the kernel manually at all.
My question is (before I download the sources and recompile the kernel) whether 
there is a way to use NFS root using rpm installation or by creating a new 
initrd (without kernel recompilation).

Have a nice day,

It looks like it's trying to mount the filesystem as ext3, not NFS.
Did you compile NFS client support into your kernel?  I think there's
also a kernel compile option to enable your root filesystem on NFS that
you'll need to enable as well.

Cheers,
Adam.
