Re: [MirageOS-devel] Should the xen build of Solo5/MirageOS boot on EC2?

I’m curious to understand - if solo5 had Xen PV on HVM drivers 
https://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Linux_PV_on_HVM_drivers, would it work on 
Xen/EC2/HVM? Is the only obstacle to it working that Solo5 doesn’t have the Xen 
virtual network and disk drivers?

Is there any chance you might consider including Xen/EC2 drivers in Solo5?

It seems to boot, up to a point anyway… this is the log from starting on 
EC2/HVM:
