Hello,

I'm trying to boot kernels from the 2.6.23.x line as paravirt domUs, 64-bit xen-3.1.0 and xen-3.1.2 are used on the test boxes. xm create starts up the domU without any problems according to the logs, however, the started domU does not output anything apart from a single tab (if I start it with -c option ), and eats up 100% CPU. Config file of the domU is as follows:

---- CUT HERE ----
kernel = '/home/wigyori/vmlinuz-2.6.23.13-xen'
#kernel = '/home/wigyori/vmlinuz-2.6.23-1-xen-686'
memory = 512
name = 'pvlinux'
root = '/dev/xvda1 ro'
extra = 'console=pvc0'
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/main/ssteszt,sda1,w' ]
---- CUT HERE ----

The domU's kernel has CONFIG_PARAVIRT enabled, and is configured as i386 arch with PAE enabled, no SMP. I've tried Debian's 2.6.23-1-xen kernel which was AFAIK reported to work, also 2.6.23.13 and 2.6.24-rc8 without any patches with no success. Can anyone shed some light on what I'm missing?

Thanks in advance,
Zoltan HERPAI
