Right, I’ve seen it happen 3 times in the past month or so. It will start to boot and I can see the console up to the the line ( Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ]) and then the console stops and it never gets to the login prompt and the network isn’t up yet so I can’t get into it.

I actually just upgraded a box to rhel5.4 and xen3.4.2 so I’ll try it there to see if I see it but since it doesn’t happen very often probably won’t know for sure for a while.
Any pointers on good reads on debugging the events or ring buffers? Like how to map xenstore info to something useful to look at:
tx-ring-ref = "768"
rx-ring-ref = "769"
event-channel = "14"
Thanks again
