I'm trying to boot 2.6.24 as a paravirt guest. I'm using all
the config selections you describe. I've done all this, from the day
"Xen" support landed up until 2.6.24 release. I've never gotten it to
boot, not once. These days (2.6.24), I get it starting, but it can
never mount /dev/root. I tried the 0x20201/xvda1 trick, but that
doesn't help either. I've often wondered - which file should I be
using from my build? arch/x86/boot/bzImage? ./vmlinux? I really would
appreciate any help - I'm currently stuck with HVM when it comes to
mainline kernel, and that's slow.
