Hi,

Think I got a bit further today. Got to know that in xen 3 the Dom0 and 
DomU kernels are the same.

Present config
1) Dom0 -- installed on /dev/hda1
2) DomU -- installed on /dev/hda8, swap /dev/hda6
     xen 3 rpm's installed on DomU
3) Create console device using MAKEDEV in domU

The DomU starts to boot. but does a kernel panic.

Attached please find the related conf and log  files. The kernel panic 
is in xenU_panic.txt

Please could you help.

Regards
Shyamal
