[Fedora-xen] Re: Dom0 Xen kernel RPM

[M A Young <m a young durham ac uk>]

I tweaked a couple of configuration settings in my previous kernel to get 
an i686 kernel to build (links below). I tried it and found two main 
problems;
* the ATA driver is serious enough in this case to stop disk access
* when I booted off a USB image logging to a serial console, it booted 
eventually, and from the way the cursor responded to the keyboard, I think 
there was a login session on the monitor, but everything except the cursor 
was blank (as if there was black text on a black screen), which might 
point to an issue with the frame buffer console drivers.

I am also told that xend doesn't start for my kernels. This may be a real 
problem, or it may be necessary to load the right modules before it will 
start.
