Subject: [Xen-users] CentOS 5.1 Paravirtualized guest hangs during creation

Hi all,

I am creating a CentOS 5.1 Paravirtualized guest On Xen 3.2.1 / Fedora
8 Dom0. I built DomU kernel from the Xen Linux 2.6.18.8 source. I also
created an initrd image (I face some problems there as I had to manually
copy some modules line xennet, ahci and libata). Anyway, I dounloaded
the CentOS5.1 image from http://jailtime.org/ and copied it to a new
partition. When I create the CentOS (using xm create) the kernel hangs.

I got some version conflict warning from the Xen kernel (due to the
modules that I had to manually copy), but I do not think this is what
causes the problem. My configuration file is attached. Is there any
chance that my guest is starting properly but I cannot catch the console?

Thanks,
Ahmed
