Hello all,
I have successfully installed xen 3.0.2 on a dual celeron system. Linux in
dom0 works fine. Now, I would like to play with the mini-os (my ultimate goal
is to implement a small RTOS as guest in Xen, so mini-os looks like an ideal
starting point). However, I can't seem to get it to run as (I think) it
should: It boots up, but as far as I understand the source code and the
README, it should continue by printing the current time in regular
intervals, which it does not. Here is the output I receive:
----------------------------------

--------------------------------
I have inserted some debug printk's into do_hypervisor_callback() to see
whether any callbacks are made at all. According to this, a vtimer interrupt
does happen, but only every 10 seconds, which -as I guess- is far less
frequent than it should be (The timer handler prints out the current time for
every 1000th timer event, so it would take almost three hours before the
first message ist printed). Also interesting is that whenever I hit a key on
the keyboard, a timer interrupt is pending. It looks like the interrupt is
somehow not "connected/enabled".
Does anyone have an idea what to do?
Cheers
Rob
P.S.: BTW, I have also tried to use the mini-os in from xen-untested. That one
looks very different, but, alas, it does not even compile...
