[Xen-users] mixing 2.6 / 2.4 kernels lots of fun

[Hugues Belanger <hbelanger@xxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm new to this list and would like to tip my hat to the Xen development
team you guys have made me look good...!

Here's the scenario :

I'm building a little demo server for a local IT shop to demonstrate how
linux can be use for SME's

Dom0 is installed and working on Fedora Core 4 running
2.6.11-1.1369_FC4xen0. 

What I would like to do is install 4 VM's on smeserver from contribs.org
one openfiler from openfiler.org and one fedoracore3 + qemu + windows XP
and one Fedoracore 4.

The last two I'm done before and I know it works, but openfiler and
smeserver run on top of centos 3 with a 2.4 kernel. which is not a big
deal for most configuration, but openfiler needs at least one LVM
partition to create shares on.

so here's what I did

1- I've created 3 disk image. 

OpenFiler1.2-1.img ------->sda1         
OpenFiler1.2-1.swap.img --------->sda2
OpenFiler1.2-1.stg.img ---------->sda3

2- fdisk /dev/sda3

Disk /dev/sda3: 3221 MB, 3221225472 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 391 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda3p1             1       391   3140676   8e  Linux LVM

3 - pvcreate /dev/sda3
pvcreate -- ERROR: "/etc/lvmtab" doesn't exist or is unreadable; you may
need to run vgscan

4-  vgscan
vgscan -- LVM driver/module not loaded?

5-  lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
lsmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented

6- depmod -ae
depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented


I've copied all the module from /lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4xenU to
<disk image mount>/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4xenU

Now I'm stuck and running out of ideas ?
please help ASAP
