xen-tools创建虚拟机找不到root fs的解决办法

用xen-create-image创建映像和cfg文件后，用xm create -c vm.cfg启动虚拟机实例，过程中找不到root fs，报错如下：

Gave up waiting for root device.  Common problems:
 - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
   - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
   - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
 - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT!  /dev/xvda2 does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!

BusyBox v1.17.1 (Debian 1:1.17.1-8) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
(initramfs)

    主要原因在于所使用的内核缺block device driver，所以要安装带有block device driver的内核，解决方法如下：

     1.# apt-get install -y linux-image-3.0.0-12-virtual

     2.# vi /etc/xen/vm.cfg

                 =======================vm.cfg========================

           [...]

           kernel      = '/boot/vmlinuz-3.0.0-13-virtual'
           ramdisk     = '/boot/initrd.img-3.0.0-13-virtual'
           [...]
