Bug#372523: linux-image-2.6.16-2-xen-686: kernel panic on software raid (md0)



Hello,

I actually found what the problem is, and i wonder if it is related to
your kernel settings. When i perform an install of Debian, the installer
sees two IDE drives as hda and hdc (they are indeed connected as primary
and secondary master) and a CDrom drive.

When your Xen kernel boots, it then sees the two drives as hde and hdg,
which doesn't really make sense. The server is a Dell PowerEdge 650 which
has been stripped of all SCSI drives and being used with IDE instead.

The IDE controller seems to be a secondary controller from the looks of it
therefore explaining that devices are being *moved* to hde and hdg.

Now, why would the Debian installer see them as hda and hdc puzzles me a bit.

I hope that will help you out, i'm surely not the only one wanting to
install Xen on such a configuration.

Steph
