Re: [Xen-tools] How to enable grub2 support when manually compiling xen-4.1.2?

["niu_xinli" <niu_xinli@xxxxxx>]

    Thanks for the reply. But I think I didn't make it clear.  Forgive my poor English.

    I install xen-4.1.2 on Fedora 16 through yum . Then I intalled a Fedora 16 pv guest. The guest os uses Grub2 and GPT partition format.  The guest os can be booted with yum-installed pygrub.

    Then I uninstalled the yum-installed xen and compiled xen 4.1.2 from source. This time the the pygrub can't boot the guest. The bootloader didn't return anything.

    Is there any compiling options that can make pygrub support grub2 in pv guest?  I can't find one since there is no configure step.

 

Thanks,

Xinli
