The only thing that patch changes is that /dev/xen/evtchn and /dev/xen/gntdev no longer get auto-created by the toolstack. So just make sure you have those device nodes before starting the Xen tools. They ought to be created by udev really but you could try mknod'ing them instead. You can find the minor numbers in /proc/misc and then, for example 'mknod /dev/xen/evtchn c 10 <minor_from_proc_misc>'. -- Keir On 14/07/2010 18:32, "Kathy Hadley" <Kathy.Hadley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > We've tried the latest changesets in xen-unstable and the xen-unstable > staging area, and still have the same issue.
