Fedora core 7, got kernel:  2.6.22.9-91.fc7

installed the 2.6.22 kernel, system wont boot! had to revert back to  
2.6.22.9-91.fc7 !

Any ideas on how to get openvz to work:?

Thanks
Daniel Moss

Hello Daniel,

could you please tell which exact OpenVZ kernel did you try?
And in order to understand why the system doesn't boot we need some info the system provides while booting:
1) what does it print on the local console when it fails to boot?
2) is there any errors in /var/log/messages?

One more point: 2.6.22 branch is a development branch at the moment - it is not stable enough yet. So if you need the system to be stable - you'd better use stable RHEL5-based branch (2.6.18).

If your problem is solved - please, report it!
It's even more important than reporting the problem itself...

What are your kernel parameters? (From grub.conf)

Hmmmm, it should be working fine.....can't you get the guys from the
DC to hook up a ip-kvm for you to see exactly where it crashes?

Daniel, do you have another node in that center? Or, might be DC stuff can provide you a node for a while to resolve the problem? The thing i'm going to ask you is to setup a serial console. It will allow us to collect the boot logs.

Hope, it's possible cause without the logs we cann't find the reason. :\
