Hi Jan,

Are you booting via the correct grub entry? (Linux 2.6 with Xen 4.1)
Also if you modprobe xen_evtchn can you start xend afterwards?

Joseph.

Hi,

Recently installed Debian Squeeze 64-bits on an older (Dell) server and
installed xen-linux-system-2.6-xen-amd64 from the standard repositories.
After a reboot, the Xen kernel is running. However, xend isn't starting.
Further inspection suggests that this might be caused by the fact that
the xen_evtchn module cannot be loaded.

Any suggestions?

Jan
