Hi,

That didn't work.

I did mkinitrd --with virtio_blk initrd-2.6.18-308.4.1.el5.img 2.6.8-308.4.1.el5

It boots fine as long as I leave the dik bus at IDE.

I even changed the fstab to use /dev/vda# rather then the labels.

Try this:

mkinitrd --with virtio_pci --with virtio_blk -f /boot/initrd-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)

That is what I used when I switched to using virtio for both disk and networking.

Also, make sure you got the Virtio declaration correct:

<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
