I built xen with debug on I think (make debug=y world ; make debug=y
install)

I've taken linux 3.0.3 and added the patch which seems to have compiled
correctly.

The DomU's continue to fail as before.

Attached are a number of logs:

dmesg.0.log - After Dom0 had booted, but before any DomU's had started
dmesg.1.log - After the first DomU had started (subsequent DomUs
generated no further messages)

domU-1.log - the console log of the first time the dom U was started
This dom U fails to run, and generates a kernel bug report

domU-2.log - the console log of the second time the dom U was started
This dom U also fails to run, but with different output. It does not
generate a kernel bug report

messages - the relevant /var/log/messages output

Anthony.
