Thread-topic: [Xen-users] How do I find out why Dom0 crashes on guest startup?
Thanks Mats! I can do a remote serial console via iLO2 on com2: but
cannot cut&paste from it (Hello HP!) - so I have screenshots only (can
send them on request) ...

Finally it tells me
Panic on CPU 2:
CPU2 FATAL PAGE FAULT
[error_code=0000]
Faulting linear address: 000000000000000

It happens on the 
(XEN) (GUEST: 1) Starting emulated 16-bit real-mode: ip=0600:000

Stack Trace can be sent on request as JPG.

Are you able to get serial output from the server to another machine? 

If so, set xen to use "console=com1 com1=115200,8n1".

If not, try adding "noreboot". 

[Both of these are arguments on the "xen.gz" line in your
/boot/grub/grub.conf]
