Hi there,
this problem was posted twice on xen-users mailing list and they said we
should forward it to the devel list ;)

Description 1:
I have a problem "porting" my domU to another kernel.
I had used the Ubtuntu 6.10 generic kernel, for both dom0 and domU, but
since there was no module support I compiled my own.
dom0 is up and running again, but when I try to create the domU I get an
error (had first a special domU kernel used, but also tried the dom0
kernel. there was no difference)
root@main:~# xm cr -c /etc/xen/root.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/root.cfg".
Error: (22, 'Invalid argument')

In addition to this after executing the command (producing the error),
the next xen related command e.g. xm list, xentop, ... causes a system
crash.
It stops responding completly and only a hardware reset is getting it
back to life. (But there's no entry in syslog about any failure...)

Description 2:
Hi all,
I had installed the Xen 3.0.3 on a opensuse 10.2 (64 bits) on new
quadcore intel processors with VT support, on a Dell Power Edge 1955
blade. I had many machines working. This installation had a poor network
performance when using hardware virtualization. My applications for MPI
require low network latencies.
I try to upgrade to Xen 3,0.4 to check the network performance.
I downloaded the tarball, and I installed it.
Now my machines doesn't run. Aditionally at the secont xm related comand
used the dom0 crashs ... causes a system crash.
Any help is wellcomed
regards, cesar

Meanwhile I found a solution for the first description, but I think it
is a kind of work around ;)
I used the xen-hypervisor and the xen-util out of the Ubuntu
repositories instead of compile my own.
In addition to this I didn't used the xensource source code any more,
but instead the one (again) out of Ubuntu repos.
Using the same .config, this time there wasn't a problem at all...
Therefore I think there is another hidden problem
