[Xen-users] where is my root?



The pvops kernel has some trouble finding my root:

grub'2'.cfg:

menuentry "GNU/Linux, with Linux 2.6.31.13" --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
        set gfxpayload=keep
        insmod raid
        insmod mdraid
        insmod ext2
        set root='(md0)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 5d272f28-2087-490b-8de2-c7d12beaff69
        echo    Loading Linux 2.6.31.13 ...
linux /vmlinuz-2.6.31.13 root=/dev/md2 ro console=tty0 console=ttyS0,38400,8n1
}
...
menuentry "Xen 4.0.0. linux-2.6.31.13 pvops" {
        insmod raid
        insmod mdraid
        insmod ext2
        set root='(md0)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 5d272f28-2087-490b-8de2-c7d12beaff69

}


pvops kernel by itself:

So there is a mounted rootfs on /dev/md2 but apparently no console.

pvops on top of xen:

here root=/dev/md2 has disappeared!

which ends in a disaster.

I have got to questions. In case of the pvops only boot is the an error in the grub.cfg file do I need to change the console? In case of the xen-pvops boot where has the root=/dev/md2 gone?
