Re: [Xen-devel]building domU vm by specifying kernel?

[Mark Williamson <mark.williamson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

Yes, it should be fine to specify the kernel in the config file.  The kernel 
is actually loaded by dom0, even if you're using pygrub (dom0 extracts it 
from the guest filesystem first).

What kind of errors are you seeing?

You should be using the options kernel="path/on/dom0" and 
ramdisk="path/on/dom0" in your config file.  What does it look like at the 
moment.?

Cheers,
Mark
