If you can't attach serial, you should at least make Xen keep the vga console (e.g. vga=text-80x50,keep for 32-bit systems, vga=mode-0x...,keep for 64-bit systems [where the actual number would generally be the same that native Linux kernel takes in its vga= option]) and possibly also specify earlyprintk=xen on the kernel command line. -- 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.

This should be easy to setup in the lab on a core 2 duo with a couple gigs of memory. Don't know if this is relevant, but I have an nvidia card. -- 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.

In case you still see nothing (i.e. the kernel perhaps makes it past trap initialization) you may still want/need "earlyprintk=xen" on the kernel command line (less likely "earlyprintk=xen.keep"). -- 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.

What exactly is the issue? 2. Does the system respond to ping? If so: Can you ssh in? Supply tar ball of /var/log? Please supply: ls -lR /boot cat /boot/grub/menu.lst What have you tried to debug it? output of hwinfo from non-xen kernel Did OpenSuSE 10.3 xen-kernel work on this system?
