This applies to the same PC as bug#400107 (that time it applies to the installation #400107 with debian( etch testing))
title Fedora Core (2.6.18-1.2849.fc6)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6.img
-> this time grub was installed as part with debian testing (etch)
-> Boot configuration of FC6 (without xen) worked fine, however without xen did
work:
I did some tests, however only with the XEN configuration:
title Fedora Core (2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen):
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/xen.gz-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
module /boot/initrd-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen.img
+ module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen
-> seems to be required with FC6XEN
+ ro
-> seems to be optional with FC6XEN
+ root=LABEL=/
-> seems to be required
+ rhgb
-> seems to be optional
+ quiet:
-> seems to be optional
+ module /boot/initrd-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen.img
-> seems to be required
