I posted a while back about trying to boot with the ''baremetal
restore''
CD created by Backup Exec''s Intelligent Disaster Recovery process.
On a physical machine, it prompts the user with a bright purple screen
that describes what is going to happen if the user proceeds.
Under Xen HVM I just got a bright purple screen with a few random
characters, some flashing, and some messages in ''xm dmesg''. At
the time
the response from the list was that the version of Xen I was using
(3.1/3.2) might not be emulating the real mode instructions properly.
I''ve just upgraded to Debian''s 3.3-unstable which claims to be
at
changeset 17879, and it doesn''t appear to be any better, although there
are no messages in ''xm dmesg''. I can''t see any hg
commits since 17879
that might resolve the problem so I think the version I am using is late
enough.
So... how might I debug this further? The bootsector is only 2048 bytes
so if someone wanted to take a look I don''t think the copyright owners
would mind if I sent it to them privately.
Thanks
James
