RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] why does xenU console stop at"Freeingunusedkernel memory:304KB freed"?

["yo.fujita" <yo.fujita@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Akio,

Thank you for your advice.
It works successfully!
It was fixed by small changes in domU's config and inittab.
I edited lines as below.

#domU's config
Before editing: extra = "nomca xencons=tty0 console=tty0 3"
After editing : extra = "nomca console=tty0 3"

#/etc/inittab
Before editing:
# Run gettys in standard runlevels
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty0
#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
#2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
#3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3
#4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4
#5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5
#6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6

After editing:
# Run gettys in standard runlevels
#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty0
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3
4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4
5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5
6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6

Thanks,
Fujita
