RE: [Xen-devel] Re: BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0! on 3.0.2-2
I also meet this bug when booting up Linux guest OS VMX domain. But if boot up Linux guest OS with kernel parameter "quiet", it can boot up successfully.

I''d really love to be able to determine the source of the error(s) and perhaps fix them myself. Not a kernel hacker and my C is rather flaky but can anyone point me to some docs one how ti interpret data from:- Pausing... 5<3>BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0!
