We upgraded our Ubuntu with Xen to 10.04 after the upgrade it will boot into the regular ubuntu, however it will not boot into the Xen (3.3) kernel.

Our output :

Screen output

What we tried :

  • increase rootdelay on the vmlinuz line in grub
  • rootwait

Result :

none, it always falls back to a shell that doesn't respond to anything.

Has anyone come across this error ?

We ended up booting ubuntu and migrating the images to KVM

it doesnt find the root Filesystem because the UUID of the disc is wrong

You have two options:

1.) edit the root part directly in the bootloader grub. Replace UUID=123123..... with the right rootfs /dev/sdaX. Once the system boots run update-grub

2a.) boot a Rescuesystem like grml or SystemRescueCd. If your System is 64bit boot 64bit kernel! - mount the rootfs probably /dev/sda1 to /mnt - then run the following commands to update grub

bash
chroot /mnt  update-grub

2b.) If 2 fails you can reinstall grub with this: - mount the rootfs probably /dev/sda1 to /mnt, then:

bash
mount --bind /dev/ /mnt/dev 
mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
chroot /mnt  grub-install /dev/sda

I hope this helps Tim
