[Xen-devel] pvgrub

["David P. Quigley" <dpquigl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So a little bit of background.

I have a vm which I know boots properly as an HVM and I want to run it
as a paravirt guest. It is a fedora 11 based image that I built from a
kickstart so I know the kernel has paravirt guest support. I have built
the latest xen-unstable tree including the stub domains to get pvgrub to
attempt to boot from. My domU config has the following lines in it.

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/pv-grub-x86_64.gz"
extra = "(hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst"

If I remove my storage devices from the config it boots into the grub
console so I know the stub domain is working. When I leave the the
storage devices in and boot with xm create -c <configfile> I get the
output below and then it hangs.

Is there any additional debug information that I can grab to try to
figure this out?
