[Xen-users] Re: Xen 4.1.0 compiled from source on Debian Squeeze 6.0

I also had the same problem, but the resolution was indeed to make sure 
I am booting with the multiboot and module lines in grub.cfg.

Here is the menuentry which works for me (please note, I had to break up
the line that starts with "module" into two lines):

menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 and XEN 4.0-amd64' --
class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os --class xen {
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ext2
        set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 417d0db7-ff6f-421e-bf6c-cc28f43b548e
        echo    'Loading Linux 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 ...'
        multiboot       /xen-4.0-amd64.gz placeholder
        module  /vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 placeholder
                      root=UUID=bd344e4b-db98-48c8-8de2-5777d78eeb94 ro  quiet
        echo    'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
        module  /initrd.img-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64
}

I also thought that I was going crazy, because I was sure I am booting with
those lines, but I wasn't. There was another entry above this one, titled 
very similarly (except, it was missing the "XEN 4.0-amd64" at the end of the
title, which DIDN'T have these lines.

Cheers!
Iordan
