[opensuse-factory] openSUSE 11.3/11.4 Xen-Kernel no boot possible
Hi,

again I have massive problems with the openSUSE-installation on my
Lenovo ThinkCentre M58p 6234-1AG (C2D E8400, Q45 Express, GMA 4500,
82567LM-3, kernel driver in use: i915).

After the update of the openSUSE 11.3-installation today, the system is
not booting with the Xen-kernel anymore.

Unfortunately the vga-mode-settings in the menu.lst where changed wrong
by the update, I corrected the settings, but I was not able to get the
server up and running with the Xen-kernel.


Finaly I made a distribution update to 11.4 Milestone 5.

The result was not too bad, the system booted the standard kernel
(2.6.37-desktop) without problems and seems to run fine.

The grub-entry for the xen-kernel in the menu.lst was wrong and I
corrected it again:

title Xen -- openSUSE 11.4 Milestone 5 of 6 - 2.6.37
root (hd0,0)
#kernel /xen.gz vga=mode-0x317 vga=mode-0x317
kernel /xen.gz vga=mode-0x317
module /vmlinuz-2.6.37-xen root=/dev/sda6 resume=/dev/sda2
splash=silent quiet showopts vga=0x317
module /initrd-2.6.37-xen

But if I select the Xen-kernel, the system is still not booting, there
is only a short flickering on the screen, then the system reboots.

I already tried to change the "vga"-options to "0xF00", "normal", remove
it, set "splash=0" and "nomodeset", but without a change.

Any other idea?

Thanks a lot.
