[Xen-users] qla2xxx Memory Alllocation Failed -rlc on Xen + SLES10

[Gladys Hoffmann <ghoffmann@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

are there any new conclusions for this subjet?
I've got the same problem while booting Dom-0 with SLES 10 and the 
qla2310 - HBAs.
Here are some more informations.

Regards
Gladys

- SLES 10 with XEN out of the box but with a new initrd to load the 
gdth-modul first and the qla2xxx later
