Hello

I have done some new tests:

- XEN 4.0.1 (self compiled, "make world") + 2.6.32.21 from Jeremy
- Windows 2008 R2 64Bit
with windows PV drivers from XCP 0.5 and the regedit change from here: http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-4.0-testing.hg?rev/be9b8be3c648

Same error:
...
XENUTIL: WARNING: CloseFrontend: timed out in XenbusWaitForBackendStateChange: /local/domain/0/backend/vfb/9/0 in state INITIALISING; retry.
XENUTIL: WARNING: CloseFrontend: timed out in XenbusWaitForBackendStateChange: /local/domain/0/backend/vfb/9/0 in state INITIALISING; retry.

...

I can not download XCP 0.1.1 to test the windows PV drivers from it, because it is not downloadable anymore.
But I have read here in the lists, that the XCP 0.1.1 drivers are not fully signed.

So the feature

"Support for Citrix WHQL-certified Windows PV drivers, included in XCP (Xen Cloud Platform). Xen Cloud Platform: http://www.xen.org/products/cloudxen.html"

is not really working... :(

Best regards
Gio

Are there some additional changes required to Xen 4.0 to support XCP 0.5 winpv drivers?
