[Xen-users] CentOS5 + 2.6.32.15 PVOPS x86_32 PAE/xen 4rc6 stalls at boot

[Task Struct From Hell <taskstructfromhell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

It appears my Xen is stalling right before handing off control to the
dom0 kernel. I would appreciate any pointers on where to look next,
since I've already spent a considerable amount of time trying to
figure this one out and nothing turns up. One small detail, with my
previous .config, I wasn't seeing the  4 "(XEN) MCE: MSR 417 is not
MCA MSR" at the end of the log, but the behavior was the same - no
dom0 boot.

I'm using pasi's .config:
http://pasik.reaktio.net/xen/pv_ops-dom0-debug/config-2.6.32.10-pvops-dom0-xen-stable-x86_32

Please note this is the debuggers.hg hypervisor, that's why it's based
on a relatively old version. I'm running this hypervisor successfully
at home. The server is a ~2 years old HP DL 365 g1.with 5gb ram

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
TSFH
