in relation to http://www.howtoforge.com/xen_3.0_ubuntu_dapper_drake?from=10&comments_per_page=10 section 3.2 I can boot up into the master (think you also call this dom) xen image. So everything working so far. The only difference i had to make to configs was that am using vmlinux-2.6.18. command i am running: cat /etc/xen/baseimage cat /var/log/xen/xen.log cat /boot/grub/menu.list Thanks
I'm not sure if Code: root = "/dev/hda1 ro" works (in /etc/xen/baseimage). Try Code: root = "/dev/hda1" instead. Also take a look at the configuration files on http://www.howtoforge.com/debian_sarge_xen_3.0.3_p4 .
yes tried that but still same problem This is what i wrote to xen team but no response yet. Hey all i have created a basefile and am doing xm create -c /etc/xen/baseimage and getting this error Error: (22, 'Invalid argument'). Been told it might be to do with kernel version but not sure what version i have or what to use or what version is loading or how to test this? I went by this tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/xen_3.0_ubuntu_dapper_drake Just changing versions that where there. and bit of this http://www.howtoforge.com/debian_sarge_xen_3.0.3_p4 can anyone help me?

Even I am getting the same error, Error: (22, 'Invalid argument') and the xend.log file also contains a similar log message. I dont think there is any problem with the configuration file, as I was able to start a guest domain with a similar config file in another Fedora machine.
