Hello, all,

I have finished compiling the Xen tools and Dom0 kernel.  The new kernel alone boots well.  However, I cannot figure out how to configure the GRUB2 to boot all components together.  I present my GRUB2 configuration below.  Please give me some suggestions or give me your properly working configuration file to me as a reference.

The menu entry for the new kernel which works fine:

menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32.41' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
        recordfail
        insmod ext2
        set root='(hd0,1)'
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 17b364bf-4e0a-4f74-a006-5f010325bd64
        linux   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32.41 root=UUID=17b364bf-4e0a-4f74-a006-5f010325bd64 ro   quiet splash
        initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32.41
}

The menu entry for all virtualization components which does not work:
My machine reboots immediately after I choose this entry.

menuentry 'Xen 4.0.2-rc5 / Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32.41' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
        recordfail
        insmod ext2
        set root='(hd0,1)'
        multiboot /boot/xen.gz
        module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32.41
        module /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32.41
}


Many thanks,

Chiu
