Hi,

just tried XCP 0.5 rc Win PV drivers on Xen 4.0 x64 2.6.31 PV_OPS kernel.

Installation of XCP PV drivers in domU Windows 2008 x64 drivers went
ok, no warning about driver signing.
Unfortunately after reboot domU is stuck showing progressbar on black screen.

Booting into safe mode works ok.

Are new XCP drivers compatible with Xen 4.0 or do we have to move to Xen 4.0.1?

Br

Peter
