Re: [Xen-users] Xen - Linux PV on HVM drivers

[Alex <alex@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I am stumped. I am glad I have ruled out the issue being with the Xen 
version, which means it can be fixed with some perseverance.
The annoying thing is that if I build the 2.6.39.1 kernel using the 
settings from the 2.6.38-8-server config template (which has almost 
every kernel option turned on in it (like most distro's do with their 
stock kernels)), I have the same issue. Are you doing anything else 
special in your initramfs image?
