Hey, all --
I'm trying to port an autoyast config from opensuse 10.1 to 10.2.
This particular config installs a xen server -- a dom0, onto which xen virtual servers are installed.
In 10.1, I could specify this section in the bootloader config, and it worked fine: <section> <append> resume=/dev/sda1 splash=silent showopts dom0_mem=512M</append> <initrd>/boot/initrd-xen</initrd> <kernel>(hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz-xen</kernel>
2 <name>XEN</name>xen <root>/dev/md0</root> <type>image</type> <vga>0x317</vga> <xen>/boot/xen.gz</xen>dom0_mem=512M </section>
<snip>
Through a combination of building a machine by hand and using the
autoyast "Reference Profile" tool, and a couple of guesses, I was able
to come up with something that works as expected. It would be nice if
it were documented, though :-)
This is the bootloader section that does what I wanted:
<section>
<append> resume=/dev/sda2 splash=silent showopts</append>
<initial>1</initial>
<initrd>(hd0,0)/boot/initrd-xen</initrd>
<image>(hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz-xen</image>
