Hi list,

I am trying to setup a DomU with linux-2.6.18-xen.hg in order to test
Remus on a Debian Squeeze 6.0 / Xen 4.0.1 (2.6.32-5-xen-amd64) Dom0.

After applying several patches to the Debian Squeeze Xen packages, I
have built the linux-2.6.18-xen.hg, but when I start my DomU, I have got
 this error message :

Error: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'xc_dom_find_loader: no loader found\n')

And more in the /var/log/xen/domain-builder-ng.log file :

xc_dom_allocate: cmdline="root=/dev/xvda2 ro ", features=""
xc_dom_kernel_file: filename="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8"
xc_dom_malloc_filemap    : 1528 kB
xc_dom_ramdisk_file: filename="/boot/initrd.img-2.6.18.8"
xc_dom_malloc_filemap    : 37 MB
xc_dom_boot_xen_init: ver 4.0, caps xen-3.0-x86_64 xen-3.0-x86_32p
xc_dom_parse_image: called

failed
xc_dom_find_loader: trying multiboot-binary loader ... failed
xc_dom_core.c:517: panic: xc_dom_find_loader: no loader found
xc_dom_release: called

I have built my linux-2.6.18-xen.hg kernel this way :

hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
cd linux-2.6.18-xen.hg/
make menuconfig
make
make modules_install
make install
mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18.8 2.6.18.8

Where am I wrong ?

Does anyone have succeeded with Remus and Debian Squeeze ? If yes, how ?

Thanks for your help,
