Hello,

thanks for the answer and the help of John.

With his help and the URL
http://http://www.virtualconcepts.nl/xenbackports.php
I recognized that initrd was not started at all,
as the kernel config file did not
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD.

Basically, the kernel config file should contain something like

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=16
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=8192
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y

to enable initrd

May be that is of any help for others.

Regards
Reiner
