[Xen-devel] [Xen-users] kernel panic in domU

Hi All,

I''m using xen 4.0.1, kernel 2.6.32.45 for DomU, kernel 2.6.32.46 for
Dom0. I
also use pygrub to boot the domU kernel in the xen. I tried all the things I
know for making this work, but unfortunately it does not work at this
moment.
The kernel shows panic message and then escapes. The following is thetrace..
it tells me that the hypercall_page might trigger the xen_panic_event and
then kernel got it to make itself panic.
