Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 0 of 5] pygrub support for Grub2 grub.cfg syntax

[Boris Derzhavets <bderzhavets@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ubuntu 9.10 Server PV DomU at Xen 3.4.1 Dom0 (2.6.31.6 pvops) on top F12
in meantime may be loaded via "pygrub" like this :-

[root@fedora12sda koala]# cat koala.py
name="KarmicPV"
memory=2048
bootloader="/usr/bin/pygrub"
kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-server"
ramdisk="/boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-14-server"
vif=['bridge=eth0']
extra="root=/dev/xvda1"
disk=['phy:/dev/sdb11,xvda,w']
vfb=['type=vnc,vncunused=1']

# xm create koala.py
# vncviewer localhost:0


Build  Xen on F12 via xen-3.4.1-5.fc12.src.rpm  with e2fsprogs-devel allows pygrub
support ext4fs boot partition Karmic's PV DomU, but cannot detect kernel,ramdisk, root.
Please, back port if possible. It will provide an option to manage via "virsh"

Boris.

The following patches implement very basic support for Grub 2's
grub.cfg syntax. It's pretty minimal but sufficient for booting Debian
Squeeze which now uses grub2 by default.

There are also some more generic fixes.

Since grub2 is starting to be used by distros this might be worth
porting to the 3.4 branch once it has baked for a while.
