So the grub part works - as you have clearly booted the guest. Did you identify whether the storage driver (xen-blkfront) is loaded by the time you get the problem? Do you see or can check whether /dev/mapper/fedora-root is present? If you mount it can you see the /live-hd file? Is the /live-hd on /dev/mapper/fedora-root or is it somewhere else? > > > But I already make Linux command line options referencing to /live-hd > directory, which should have such a media. > > What I am doing wrong here?
