Is there a way to avoid the Xen on-screen crash dump/traceback? I''m having a xen startup (before dom0) problem with a particular configuration where I don''t have a serial port, so I can''t see the last messages output before the crash. I''ll probably be able to find the code and comment it out, if nothing currently exists. In which case, please consider this feature request. -- jared@wordzoo.com "Better to be of a rare breed than a long line." -- TDK ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

My problem is a xen.gz thing, so far as I know. As far as linux crash dumps, I prefer the network dump patches instead :) I haven''t installed built a machine with a floppy in years. -- jared@wordzoo.com "Tiger gotta hunt. Bird gotta fly.

I thought you were talking about domain0 oopses. BTW, I have neither VGA controller nor floppy in my xen machine ;-) jkt -- cd /local/pub && more beer > /dev/mouth ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
