Re: [Xen-users] Newbie DomU problem

[Tim Post <tim.post@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are you certain that shoudn't be a 'sda' not 'hda' ?  (Are you using
SATA drives?)

Try altering the line to read:

disk = [ 'file:/home/poncho/gentoo/gentoo.2006-0.img,sda1,w' ] 

And likewise edit :

root=/dev/hda6 ro to root=/dev/sda1 ro

and see what happens. You may also consider giving the dom-u some swap
space :) But that's some fun for after you get it to boot.
