I moved the guest to another folder, rebooted to Xen, and the system hung at the same point.
Rather than chase down misconfigurations, I will reinstall the system. I have reinstalled this 22 times. The number of possible failures is much larger than the time to reinstall.
I am shooting for a minimal dom0. With the 4K display, I want to make the screen readable with I make the next installation. I have an iso for stretch but I will get the latest and dd it to a thumb drive. I have another thumb drive with the Intel wifi drivers. 0
How do I make the display readable without compromising the Xen installation?
The Debian wiki for installing Xen has some grub configurations which I followed. Do you have any recommendations was to whether to follow these?
https://wiki.debian.org/Xen:
GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN="dom0_mem=1024M,max=1024M"
I used 2048 instead of 1024 due to notes on 1024 being too small.
Edit /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp
to configure the toolstack to match by changing the following settings:
(dom0-min-mem 1024)
(enable-dom0-ballooning no)
At this point you should reboot so that these changes
take effect.
