You might find "noreboot" on the hypervisor command line or a serial console, as described at http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XenSerialConsole , lets you see the messages. There are more debugging options mentioned under "Are there more debugging options I could enable to troubleshoot problems with Xen and/or dom0 kernel?" in http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XenParavirtOps > I used the 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64-kernel from squeeze.

(grub2 subtly changed the multiboot semantics compared with grub1) In this case that is the "root=UUID=..." This is described under "Booting Xen with GRUB2 fails?" at http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XenCommonProblems Since Squeeze has a fix for this issue the above should contain "placeholder" at the start of each command line. Since you do not have this I guess either you are not running Squeeze's version of grub2 or you have a bunch of /etc/grub.d/*.dpkg-* which need resolving? Although perhaps just running "update-grub" will fix the issue. Ian. -- Ian Campbell Current Noise: Muse - Darkshines Q: How much does it cost to ride the Unibus?
