RE: [Xen-devel] domain0 no longer boots

[James Harper <JamesH@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In addition to this, what would be the best way to deal with the modules? I understand the original config doesn't use modules but i've added a few things to it and so have modules to deal with.  Ideally 'make world' would install the modules to a folder which can be installed on the other domains later...

re: make world, is there a way to install my own .config's for the xen0 and xenU kernels rather than having it just use the defaults?

 

thanks

When using the unstable tree, its always wise to recompile
everything with 'make world' having done a bk pull: Certain
checkins in the unstable line do make changes to the hypervisor
API (we obviously don't do this in the stable series). 

Keir checkedin a couple of important cleanups to the API
yesterday, which removed some changes in the sparse tree. As well
as rebuilding xen linux, it was necessary to redo the
'mkbuildtree'. "make world" will do this for you.
