Hey guys!Â
Thanks for the continued support and advice. It seems like my job is not done yet.. :(
I finished the installation using Thiago's documentation and the configuration file from Boris.While building the kernel, I kept the default setting for all the questions that came up at the prompt.
When I set up the xend and the xendaemon services using, I still get the earlier warning:
update-rc.d xend defaults 20 21
the output was: update-rc.d: warning: xend start runlevel arguments (2 3 4 5) do not match LSB Default-Start values (3 4 5) update-rc.d: warning: xend stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (0 1 2 6)
And after rebooting the machine, I don't even get the grub2 choices for boot. All I get is a Kernel Panic message saying:
kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: unable to mount root FS on unknown-block
Obviously, this is a problem with the grub file that I created, but shouldn't I at least get the option to boot up the Ubuntu 10.04 that was initially working?
Now, can anyone please tell me how to correctly assign "root" to the correct hard disk partition ("hda.?") while creating your custom grub file in the /etc/grub2.d/ directory?
Now that I don't get the options from grub about which OS operating system I want to boot up from, is there a way to change the grub file to point to the correct hd partition? State of complete collapse at this time............

Hey Boris!
I am using your configuration file to install xen4.0.1 from scratch. Thanks! Could you please also send me the grub entry (or the file that you made for the xen boot in the /etc/grub.d/ directory). I just want to confirm that it is the same as the original tutorial.
Also, did you change anything else from the steps given below (from the original mail by Thiago) while installing your version:

Âapt-get build-dep xen-3.3 Â2- Download, compile and install Xen and its tools:

There is no "/proc/xen" either!
What do you all recommend? Should I use a different kernel (if so which one) or a different .config file?
Can I fix the present set up in some way?
I find it amusing that I am learning stuff about the internal setup of Xen that I wouldn't have had this install been "seamless"...ÂÂ
Cheers to that!

That's a core issue , why xend fails to start. During pvops Dom0 load "udevd" should create :- # ls -l /dev/xen total 0
crw------- 1 root root 10, 58 Sep 16 18:41 evtchn
crw------- 1 root root 10, 57 Sep 16 18:41 gntdev
On any system Ubuntu 10.04.1 Server, F13,F14,etc Then xend will start after Dom0 gets loaded.
Boris.

Do you have xenfs mounted? see if the following line comes up in the list if you type mount:
# mount ... xenfs on /proc/xen type xenfs (rw) ...
If not, then you can try mounting it manually. If xenfs is compiled as
a module, you may have to modprobe it first. If it is not enabled in your kernel, then you have to rebuild your dom0 kernel, and enable it.
On my (Ubuntu Server 10.04.1 based) system, this gets mounted automatically
by either udev or xend itself (it is not in fstab).
In my experience on this system, xend fails ususually due to one of the following reasons: 1) Failure to mount
xenfs (because it is not configured, or the module is not loaded). 2) Inconsistent installation of xentools (in wrong python directory or mixed with older version).
Regards, Mark.
