hi,
i install xen-4.2 on debian6.0(i386)/squeeze,and the dom0 kernel is 2.6.32.40.
i create a domU successfully using xen-create-image:xen-create-image --hostname localhost --ip 192.168.226.242 --verbose

but when i start this domU(xm create -c /etc/xen/localhost.cfg),error happens:
Loading, please wait...
[    6.032277] udev[1065]: starting version 164
Begin: Loading essential drivers ... done.

Begin: Waiting for root file system ... done.
Gave up waiting for root device.  Common problems:
 - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
   - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
   - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
 - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT!  /dev/xvda2 does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!
