Re: [Xen-users] Kernel panic on booting 2.6.32.16 pvops kernel

It seems out of memory, you can try to add dom0_mem=512M after 'kernel /xen.gz'

Im currently running the xen 4.0.1-rc5-pre version with the linux 2.6.32.16 as the pvops kernel.
I get this kernel panic when booting into the dom0 :

Following is the grub config:
title Xen 4.0.1 Testing - Linux 2.6.32.16 pvops
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /xen.gz noreboot loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all iommu=pv console=tty1 console=com2 com2=57600,8n1
    module /vmlinuz-2.6.32.16 ro root=/dev/vg1/root loglevel=10 swiotlb=force earlyprintk=xen xencons=ttyS1 console=ttyS1
    module /initrd-2.6.32.16.img
    savedefault 0

Im running this on a Dell R610 Poweredge Server with Intel X5550 processors.
Ive tried this with both swiotlb turned on and off. It gives the same kernel panic. Any suggestions or ideas why this is happening?

Thanks,
Adit
