+# Some runes for finding out what might be missing
+#
+# On working boot (eg Debian kernel eg before ts-xen-install):
+#   lsmod | perl -ne 'm/^\w+/ or die; push @e, "+= $&\\.o" if $& ne 
+#         "Module"; END { print "git-grep '\''"; print join "\\|", @e;

+#         if m/\\bCONFIG_[0-9A-Z_]+\\b/ '\''\n" }'
+# This prints a big git-grep | perl rune
+# Run said rune in a clone of linux.git
+# Output of git-grep |perl rune is list of "# CONFIG_... is not set"
+# Copy to a file on relevant host, and grep the osstest kernel's config
+#   grep -f t /boot/config-3.14.34+ |less
