It should look like: title Kernel-2.6.18.2-33-xen root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/xen.gz module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.2-33-xen root=/dev/sda6 vga=0x317 resume=/dev/sdb1 splash=silent showopts module /boot/initrd-2.6.18.2-33-xen (Adjust different hd and /dev/* definitions if you have different disks and partitions) Patch 2.6.18.2-33 XEN kernel installation in Grub should be corrected. I tested it on x86_64 platform and it worked after described modification. Also entries concerning previous kernel versions should be removed from menu.lst because those kernels are removed by kernels 2.6.18.2-33 patches installation. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
