1 Hi all.
2
3 I'm trying to install Xen in my Gentoo Box. I've followed the Wiki at
4 Gentoo Wiki <http://gentoo-wiki.com/Xen> and followed every instruction,
5 but i have a few doughs and a problem.
6
7 I've installed the Xen-sources from marineam-xen overlay. When booting,
8 i got an error:
9
10 Cannot open root device "sda6" or unknown-block (0,0)
11 Please append a correct boot option
12 Kernel Panic: Not syncing. unable to mount rootfs
13 ...
14
15 my grub.conf is:
16 title=Xen 3.0.4 Linux 2.6.16.33
17 root (hd0,4)
18 kernel /xen.gz
19 module /vmlinuz-2.6.16.33-xen0 root=/dev/sda6
20
21 title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.20-gentoo-r7 x86_64
22 root (hd0,4)
23 kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.20-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/sda6 vga=0x31B
24 video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap splash=silent,fadein,theme:livecd-2007.0 quiet
25 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1
26 initrd /boot/fbsplash
27
28 I've compiled the file systems in use in the kernel and not as modules
29 and the support for my SATA HDD also.

31 I cannot find any help in google or in the Wiki.
32
33 Any ideias?

35 Cheers,
