Dear list-members, i am trying to setup Xen on a NetBSD 3.0 system (i386). It seems that grub cant pass the "root" parameter to NetBSD's xen dom0 kernel and therefor the kernel isn't able to boot in my case. This is what I did to install grub.
My root partition (ld0a): [EMAIL PROTECTED] > mount /dev/ld0a on / type ffs (local) [...] My device mappings: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > cat /grub/device.map (fd0) /dev/rfd0a (hd0) /dev/rld0d Installing worked without any errors. Also chainloading the NetBSD kernel works as it should. [EMAIL PROTECTED] > grub-install My kernels... [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ls -lh /netbsd* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 8.1M Mar 24 22:35 /netbsd -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 3.8M Apr 7 22:14 /netbsd-XEN0 This is what my menu.lst looks like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > egrep -v '^#|^$' /grub/menu.lst default=1 timeout=10 title Xen 2.0 / NetBSD root(hd0,0) kernel (hd0,a)/xen.gz dom0_mem=65536 module (hd0,a)/netbsd-XEN0 root=/dev/hda1 console=pc title NetBSD chain root (hd0,0) chainloader +1 I am kind of lost, because I don't get any error or something like that. It just hangs when it comes to the user-land, say reading the root partition. Please let me know how I can give more information about this issue. I would be very happy if someone could help me with this. BTW i am using the latest version (GNU GRUB 0.97) -- /sp4rc _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list Bug-grub@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
