Ian,
Thank you I did not know that. I will add information as comment in PKGBUILD.
I had an error in a previous xen ver if I didn't put i the EFI_VENDOR. I saw in docs that
EFI_DIR let you put the efi directly were it was to go. I will comment out EFI_VENDOR.
as soon as I get the PKGBUILD 100% stable then I will likely reformat so my /boot is FAT32
so that the kernels will be updates properly. My current test box is setup with
sda1 as fat32, sda2 & xen-dom0 as ext4. I am booting off of /boot/efi/EFI/arch_grub
so when I had things wrong and xen.efi failed it fell back to grub2 and booted xen.
# lsblk
sda 8:0 0 477G 0 disk
sda1 8:1 0 512M 0 part /boot/efi
sda2 8:2 0 244M 0 part /boot
sda3 8:3 0 476.2G 0 part
xen-dom0 254:0 0 28.2G 0 lvm /
xen-win8 254:1 0 100G 0 lvm
sdb 8:16 1 29.8G 0 disk
sdb1 8:17 1 29.8G 0 part
sr0 11:0 1 3.1G 0 rom
The xen.conf had all of these in it. Is there something in my parameters(below) that is
also causing all these to be populated?
#xen-evtchn builtin kernel
#xen-gntdev builtin kernel

All,
Since what you all talked about I am really hoping I configured something incorrectly here as in the EFI_VENDOR case.
My bad sorry I didn't think that most probably aren't familiar with Arch on top of which I didn't point that I was trying to make
an arch package so the parameters. compile configuration, the dependencies etc were in the attached PKGBUILD.
Here are the parameters

I manually created /run/lib/xenstored when I rebooted it was gone
I noticed for some reason in my email I cut the bottom off the error message so here
is the complete message plus some additional systemctl info
