3. Creating an HDLM Environment

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-11.EL ro rhgb quiet

initrd /initrd-hdlm-2.6.9-11.EL.gz

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (2.6.9-11.EL)

root (hd1,0)

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-11.EL ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/

8.

Copy the configuration that was used for startup from the HDLM device.

9.

Assign a name to the copied configuration.
You can assign any name that indicates that the configuration is used for

specifying the SCSI device.
Change

label

if the boot loader is LILO, or ELILO running on an IPF host. If

LILO is the boot loader, you must then execute

/sbin/lilo

command to

activate the new setting.
Change

title

if you will use GRUB as the boot loader.

10. In

root

, specify the SCSI device you checked in step 3.

If you are using a kernel that supports Xen on SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server

10, add the root device by using the definition conventions for the boot loader

configuration file.
When LVM2 is used, specify

root

as the name of the device mounted to

/

in the

/etc/fstab

file.

If LVM2 is not used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, a block device name starting

with

UUID=

can be used. To check the correspondence between a SCSI device and

the block device name starting with

UUID=

, see step 5.

If LVM2 is not used in SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10, you can also use the

device name (

udev

name) in the

/dev/disk

directory. To check the

correspondence between the SCSI devices and the device name (

udev

name) in

the

/dev/disk

directory, see step 5.

11. In

initrd

, specify the initial RAM disk image file for the SCSI device.

If you are using a kernel that supports Xen on SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server

10, change the

initrd

file name specified in

module

to the initial RAM disk
