The configuration change is just copying xen.gz from /boot to
/boot/efi/efi/redhat.
Ah, okay, thanks.
The kernel panic happens in initrd when mounting root devices. There
is no real initrd change. My build is working. I'm using
mkinitrd-5.0.32-1 and cpio-2.6-11.2.1. Could you check yours?
I'm using cpio-2.6-17 and mkinitrd-5.0.40-1 now. I'm not sure what
I was using when the rpms were made, since I've updated recently!
However I found that my panic was due to a mistake I made in
elilo.conf. I can boot dom0 now that I fixed that. Here is what I'm
using:
image=vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2211_FC6.agriffisxen0
label=xen-2.6.16-1.2211_FC6.agriffis
vmm=xen.gz-2.6.16-1.2211_FC6.agriffis
initrd=initrd-2.6.16-1.2211_FC6.agriffisxen0.img
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
read-only
append="sched=bvt sync_console -- rhgb quiet xencons=ttyS8 console=ttyS8
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00"
I think actually cpio causes the issue since kernel panic goes away
after I re-archieve your initrd with my cpio.
Hmmm, well hopefully this won't continue to be a problem. The initrd
directly from the rpm is working here...
