[Xen-devel] Xen kernel not booting after showing msg "Xen is relinquishing VGA console"
Hi there, I am trying to install Xen 3.2 on my desktop. After the installation when I boot my Xen kernel, it hangs after showing the message "Xen is relinquishing VGA console". My host machine is running 32 bit Fedora Kernel 2.6.22.14-72.fc6 and Xen 3.2 comes with dom0 kernel 2.6.18.8. My grub.conf looks like this (it is relative to /boot/: title Fedora (Xen-3.2) root (hd0,2) kernel /xen-3.2.gz module /vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet module /initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img Then i tried Xen 3.1 and it also came with dom0 kernel 2.6.18.8 but I found the same problem during the boot. The output of lspci on my machine shows the following info related to card and display: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) Could you please let me know what could be the problem? I look forward hearing from you soon. Thanks, Abhinav Share files, take polls, and make new friends - all under one roof.

You could try appending console=tty0 to the ''module /vmlinuz...'' menu line. -- Keir On 28/5/08 19:21, "Abhinav Srivastava" <abhinavs_iitkgp@yahoo.co.in> wrote:> > Hi there, > > I am trying to install Xen 3.2 on my desktop.

Hi Keir, Thanks for the prompt reply. It tried console=tty0 but it did not work. I am getting the same problem. Any other suggestions or pointers?
