Re: [Xen-devel] New kernel won't boot

I suspect that running xen-clone in the directory where you did
will actually have just pulled and rebuilt a brand new repository
rather than rebuilding the one you'd edited :-(

So to summarise: 

 If you do the exact same sequence of grub steps with the xen and
xenolinux images from the CD it works fine, but fails with the
ones you build yourself.

Please could you pull and try these two images from the unstable
tree that I've just built for you:

 http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/iap10/temp/xenolinux.gz
 http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/iap10/temp/image.gz

If these fail, please can you do as Keir suggests and boot a
standard Linux kernel and send us the boot output, in particular
anything relating to e820 messages.

Thanks,
Ian
