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

Sorry didn't work. Aso it will only handle this special case, not the general case of /dev/something. # python GrubConf.py grub2 /home/tehadmin/snail-grub.cfg WARNING:root:Unknown directive load_video WARNING:root:Unknown directive terminal_output WARNING:root:Unknown image directive load_video Traceback (most recent call last): File "GrubConf.py", line 467, in <module>

This grub.cfg from a default fedora 19 Beta install caused pygrub failures.The previous pygrub commit fixed taht. So this example file added for reference.

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

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

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

Hi all, After applying some updates onto a Debian web server, I rebooted it.

Hi Bastian, I'd like to propose backporting the following changesets from upstream xen-unstable into the xen-3 package. With these it is possible to boot a default installation of Squeeze (using d-i) in a domU using pygrub. 20480:c2c2e67b8198 pygrub: if default entry is "saved" then use first entry. 20481:8f4e0adc2b3b pygrub: expands tabs before displaying menus. 20485:086a6a0c3f37

I''m trying to run Xen on Arch Linux with UEFI boot. I followed the steps for Xen in the Arch Linux Wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xen I get the following when attempting to boot: Loading Xen 4.2.2 ...

Keir, This would also be appropriate for 3.1.0, since the /usr/lib fix makes pygrub work on ia64 Presently pygrub only looks in /efi/redhat/elilo.conf. It should check for other distributions, plus a couple fallback locations.
