I am trying to get a pv_ops dom0 working for testing,
but I am running into an elf_init error:

(XEN) *** LOADING DOMAIN 0 ***
(XEN) elf_init: not an ELF binary

Full output attached.

>From what I have read on the mailing lists, it seems
that it is usually a problem with either grub or a
corrupt dom0 kernel.

Attached is my kernel config (2.6.28-rc6-tip).

I followed the instructions on:
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenParavirtOps

Then I did make menuconfig and added:
XEN_DOM0
XEN_BLKDEV_BACKEND

here are the two grub entries I tried

title           Xen 3.4-unstable / Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.28-rc6-tip
root            (hd0,0)
kernel          /boot/xen-3.4-unstable.gz loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all
dom0_max_vcpus=1 com1=115200,8n1 console=com1 noreboot dom0_mem=512M
module          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-rc6-tip root=/dev/sda1 ro console=tty0
xencons=ttyS0,115200
module          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-rc6-tip

title           Xen 3.4-unstable / Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.28-rc6-tip
uuid            30596923-1435-4516-809d-ef8cd2958532
kernel          /boot/xen-3.4-unstable.gz
module          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-rc6-tip
root=UUID=30596923-1435-4516-809d-ef8cd2958532 ro console=tty0
module          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-rc6-tip

The error was reported by others (unanswered), but they might be unrelated:
http://xen.markmail.org/message/grqiejrlax6tyutn?q=elf_init
http://xen.markmail.org/message/r5y32q5yyuv4okgj?q=elf_init

Any suggestions on what went wrong and/or what else to try?

Cheers,
Todd
