Hi Keir,

Appreciate your help ....

I assume you mean export XEN_TARGET_ARCH=x86_64 and then make install
... it seems to generate the same 32bit xen

Tried this but something is not really working installed the mulitlib
package as well.

Something is not right on my system (or I lack the skill to figure out
cross-compiling):-)

Well, I went with an easier way.... installed Debian 64 bit hypervisor
from testing and that solved the problem ....

So the bug is only shows up with 32bit hypervisor....not with 64....
this is why some people could use GRUB2 (most people I guess goes 64bit
these days...).

Pasi, maybe the above is a good bit for your Wiki pages... would have
saved me almost 2 weeks tinkering (I tried all kinds of things before
asking the question here on the list).

Since this is my very first XEN project, I yet to create a domU :-)

Let me know if the consol output would be any help ... but I guess that
just shows normal boot..
