I''d forgotten to add ''CRAMFS'' in my config so the kernel panicked. The annoying thing was that it hung on reboot. Has xen changed the way it does a reboot between 2.0.6 and 3.0? This machine has been able to do a reboot in the past. I''ve been bitten by this sort of error before (ie a kernel panic caused by something I''ve done wrong but I''ve missed it because xen rebooted), could we add in a delay (5 seconds would do, or maybe a boot option) before xen reboots?

If you add "noreboot" you need to power-cycle by hand. -Kip On 9/9/05, James Harper <james.harper@bendigoit.com.au> wrote:> > > > ''ignorebiostables'' got it running again.
