Hi,
sorry for not replying directly but somehow the mails of this report got lost
for me,
update-grub adds 2.6.26-1-686-bigmem with a Xen hypervisor to the grub
config. This image does not support to be loaded as initial domain by
the hypervisor.
I don't get this Xen stuff
There is this [0] message from Ian Campbell which says that there's no way to
dertermine
if a CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y + CONFIG_XEN=y runs in a Dom0 or not.
# diff -u config-2.6.26-1-*|egrep 'XEN|PARAVIRT'
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST=y
CONFIG_XEN=y
CONFIG_XEN_MAX_DOMAIN_MEMORY=8
+CONFIG_XENCTRL=y
CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y
-CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=m
+CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=y
-CONFIG_NETXEN_NIC=m
-CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=m
+CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_HVC_XEN=y
CONFIG_XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND=y
CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON=y
CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES=y
So should we also grep for CONFIG_XENCTRL=y to be more on the safe side that
this kernel can be loaded
with the Xen hypervisor?
There was a bugreport that we shouldn't look for *-xen-* in the filename,
because some other thing uses xen too
which has nothing to do with the Xen virtualization if I remember correctly and for custom kernels this wouldn't work anyway.
