Xen users - Feb 2012 - kernel is not a bzImage

Hello list,

Since a few months I get the following error after I have recompiled 
Xen from hg, xen-4.1-stable or xen-unstable:

ERROR Invalid kernel: xc_dom_probe_bzimage_kernel: kernel is not a 
bzImage

This comes from domU''s that are configured to use pv-grub. As a 
workaround I do have a working pvgrub-x86_64.gz from an earlier compile 
so I''m using that without problems. But new compiles always fail for
me.
How come?

Thanks,
-Mark

Maybe this is related:

No answer there, but maybe you can try to follow up with the xen-devel thread.

HTH.

Cheers,
Todd
