<!-- This line needs to point to your root file system.
For example change "root_fs" to the name of the Debian image.
Inside coLinux it will be /dev/cobd0

Block Device Aliasing: You can now handle most dual-boot issues
by adding an alias="devname" to block_device. i.e. alias="hda",
alias="hda1" You can do this for SCSI as well as IDE. You need
to be aware that if you add an alias, you need to change your
bootparams root="devname" appropriately (you may need to use
devfs naming in some situations). -->
<block_device index="0" path="hdb3/dev"
enabled="true" />

<!-- This line can specify a swap file if you wish, or an additional
image file, it will /dev/cobd1. Additional block_devices can
be specified in the same manner by increasing the index -->

<block_device index="1" path="\DosDevices\c:\coLinux\swap_device"
enabled="false" />

<!-- bootparams allows you to pass kernel boot parameters -->
<bootparams>root="cobd0"</bootparams>

<!-- Initial RamDISK (initrd) support -->
<initrd path="initrd.gz" />

<!-- image allows you to specify the kernel to boot -->
<image path="vmlinux" />

<!-- this line allows you to specify the amount of memory available
to coLinux -->
<memory size="64" />

<!-- This allows you to modify networking parameters, see the README
or website or wiki for more information -->
<network index="0" type="tap" />
</colinux>
colinux mounts the partion ok but i get kernal panic because i dont know how to set the boot paramaters for the setup to work.
