Hi all,
I've used Converter 5.5 to virtualize a physical machine Linux Suse-10.1 server that is working fine.
When I boot this virtual machine I've problems with mounting devices and this produce a Kernel panic error.
* Mounting /dev/sda1 on /sysroot
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /sysroot failed : No such device
mknod: /sysroot/dev/console: No such file or directory
mknod: /sysroot/dev/null: No such file or directory
mknod: /sysroot/dev/zero: No such file or directory
* Switching / to /sysroot
switch_root: bad newroot /sysroot
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
I was trying diferents options like they were explained here : V2V LVM2 Conversion and resize causes kernel panic and here : http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linu...general/106216
I boot from LiveCD (openSuse-13.2) to mount and make manually a new image initrd, following all the steps described in the two links I detailed before, but I've problems with mkinitrd command :
I can explore correctly all directory and files virtualized from the physical machine in a linux console from Livecd.
