[Xen-users] no init found error when starting a PV guest

[Dheeraj Achra <dachra@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Howdy,

I just tried creating a PV guest on
my SLES 10 machine. Following are the basic steps I went through for that.

Under Yast/Xen - Add -> use a disk
image or a physical disk that contains OS boot files -> disks ->
Add -> create a new disk image (virtual disk = sda2, Source= /var/lib/xen/images/vm3/sda2)
- > Accept -> Operating System Boot - > Partition containing boot
files = sda2, xen Enabled Kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-xen, boot file(initrd):/boot/initrd-xen,
boot option: TERM=xterm

When starting the PV guest I get the
error message: 

Kernel Panic - no syncing: No init found:
try passing init= to kernel.

fdisk -l
