On a fedora core 7 (x86_64) box I checked out linux-2.6.18.hg and
compiled a 32 bit domU kernel. The kernel has problems reading the
superblock of the filesystem being mounted.

However a 64 bit domU kernel compiled from the same tree works fine,
which leads me to suspect that there may be a compatibility issue
between the dom0 backend and the domU frontend.

My dom0 kernel is the default fc7xen kernel.

Is this known? Has anyone tested this configuration?
