Hi Chiu,

Sorry for this late answer.

Good morning, Marc,

The dd copy completed last night. I set up a fully virtualised VM using that image.
Great!
The VM gets started, and picks up the boot block.
It then complains  about the video mode, but allows me to use scan to pick up 
the 80x24 screen mode.

The next thing it does is to decompressing Linux, which it said "done".
But when it tries to boot kernel, it hangs there.

Could you post kernel messages (more info is need to solve the problem) to the xen-mail-list? opening a new threat ? If you post your messages with a copy to the list, it could be useful to other users.
In this instance, the original guest system is using 2 x AMD 246 CPUs.
The Dom0 server is Intel Xeon 5160 cpus.

Do you think this is the reason why the kernel booting hang?

Peter

Regards,

Marc
