Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Blocking problem with booting the domU
It's got 8 CPUs ;)

No, this could not be the fault, because i had it running with that config 
before, but deleted unforutnately the working kernel.

In between i fetched a running domu-kernel from SuSE, but i want to make it 
smaller, so i am wondering about the options despite the drivers -> Xen -> 
frontend* features that i'll need to add to keep it running as small as 
possible?

Seems to me, that i am forced to do it on the long way, disabling one tree 
after the other in the kernel config and recompile until the kernel is not 
working any more.
That will give me the blocker then...

So at that point of view, the blocker is no blocker any more but a 
kernel-config question ;)

Greets, Florian
