Thread-topic: Problem booting into Xen kernel
I'm having a problem booting into the Xen kernel. The server is a HP DL385 Dual-Opteron with 4GB of RAM. The OS is CentOS 4.2 64-bit for AMD64. I have successfully installed Xen via the shell script method. After rebooting into the Xen kernel, I get the following boot messages and the server just freezes:
 
<snip>
Enabling SMP...
Brought up 2 CPU's
Initializing CPU#1
checking if image is initramfs... it is
Freeing initrd memory: 3668k freed
Grant table initialized
NET: Registered protocol family 16
PCI: Using configuration type 1
 

And that's it. The freeze occurs right after the PCI message is echoed to the screen. Any ideas?
 
PS: The Xen kernel seems to not honor the "panic=xx" attribute. When this freeze occurs, it requires a power-off/power-on sequence.
