Subject: [xen-discuss] can't boot 2009.06 domU on Xen 3.4.1 / CentOS 5.3 dom0
To: [email protected]

I've got a CentOS 5.3 dom0 with Xen 3.4.1-rc5 (or so). I've tried the same 
stuff below with 3.4.0, no difference. I'm trying to install 2009.06 PV domU 
based on instructions from [1] and [2]. I can run the install fine, I can also 
get the kernel and boot archive (from [2]) after the install. But for the life 
of me I can't get the installed domU to boot.

If I try to use pygrub, which I think in 3.4.1 has the necessary changes to 
boot ZFS, I get "bootloader did not return any data" straight away in the xm 
create. This would indicate that something isn't right about the zpool or 
pygrub. If I use the kernel and boot archive (see [2]) then it does start to 
boot but panics within seconds, see below for console output, which also 
indicates that something in ZFS boot is not happy.

I've tried every combination I can think of for providing storage to the domU, 
including LVM, file, and separate device. When using a separate device I tried 
specifying the disk as following in the Xen config file:

  disk = ['phy:/dev/sdb,0,w']

Also going to sdb1, or setting the target device to xvda, etc.. Doesn't seem to 
matter, still fails in pygrub or early boot.

Note that I can boot the LiveCD again and import the ZFS pool from disk (zpool 
import -f rpool), it's definitely there. I've tried this on hardware (Intel 
5500-based server) and under VMware, same failure.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Josh
