Package: xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64 Version: 4.0.1-1 Severity: grave Tags: squeeze upstream
Some newer hardware components (it is unclear what exactly causes the issue) render xen-hyervisor unusable as it crashes immediately after boot for the Debian out-of-box configuration. This results in a system rebooting all over again if the hypervisor is choosen as default stanza to be booted by grub which is particular severe as Xen is most likely used on remote boxes. This bug report is for reference only as I already reported the issue upstream.
