similar to: Bug#599243: xen-utils-4.0: pygrub does not understand grub2 partition types (e.g. (hd0, msdos1) instead of (hd0, 1))

Please apply that patch to squeeze, otherwise you will not be able to boot even a standard squeeze installation! Since there is no pv-grub in squeeze I think it's quite important to fix it. Cheers, Darkbasic

Package: xen-utils-4.0 Version: 4.0.1-1 Severity: normal File: pygrub The pygrub awesome error messages are captured below. Please tell me what pygrub was doing and why it failed. I also don't understand why <image> is supposed to be an integer. # '/usr/lib/xen-4.0/bin/pygrub' '--kernel=/vmlinuz' '--ramdisk=/initrd.img' '/dev/sda3' linux (kernel

Confirmed this issue. To reproduce: Install a fresh Wheezy AMD64 guest under Xen 4.1 (hypervirtualized, boot from the debian-7.1.0-amd64-CD-1.iso). Use "entire disk" automatic layout for partitioning, this creates /dev/xvda1 for / and /dev/xvda5 for swap. It will create /boot/grub/grub.cfg with many references to (/dev/xvda,msdos1) which works fine when the machine is booted

Right, in this context there isn't really a general case since for things to work with

I recently updated the kernel on an Ubuntu 11.04 PVM domU. The dom0 is an up to date Debian Squeeze host (Xen 4.0.1). Attempting to start the domU after this with xm create gives "Error: Boot loader didn''t return any data!". I ran pygrub against the domU manually, I got the following: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/xen-default/bin/pygrub", line

You get these if you install Debian Wheezy as HVM and then try to convert to PV. This is Debian bug #603391.

Package: xen-utils-4.0 Version: 4.0.1-5.2 Severity: important Tags: upstream patch pygrub in Debian Squueze does not support Grub2 submenus. At least Ubuntu Precise uses a submenu for older kernel versions, so a Precise domU with more than one kernel installed will be unbootable (without manual fixes) on a Squeeze dom0. Attached is a patch that adds submenu support to pygrub. -- System

Booting a fedora 19 domU failed because a it could not properly parse the grub.cfg file. This was cased by set default="${next_entry}" This statement actually is within an ''if'' statement, so maybe it would be better to skip code within if/fi blocks... But this patch seems to work fine. --- tools/pygrub/src/GrubConf.py | 2 ++ 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0

Fix: change the added sys.path entry to point to /usr/lib/xen-3.0.2-1/lib/python.

Hi Bastian, I'd like to propose backporting the following changesets from upstream xen-unstable into the xen-3 package.
