(And halt, but the keyboard fuctions, even the screen turns off for saving after a few minutes, so i think there are just some serial output problems, but have a hard time figure out why - this functions on Debian Sid, but behaves like this on Ref Hat Ent 3..)

The grub config is:


title xen ....
        kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=131072 com1=115200,8n1 noht
        module /vmlinuz-2.4.26-xen0 root=/dev/hda2 ro console=ttyS0

(using serial output - on THE PC box i use tty0 - without it it only boots until (XEN) *** Serial input -> DOM0 (type 'CTRL-a' three times to switch input to Xen
 )

Thank you!

regards
Rune J.A

The Red Hat Ent 3 is pretty old, but the glibc is compiled for i686 and
the Xen kernel is compiled for the the right cpu, so the traditional
error are checked out. The system is not halting either, but seems to
go in an eternal loop. The keyboard works, but I cannot ping or ssh the
OS..

Is this output coming over as serial line?

You need "com1=115200,8n1" on the Xen grub line and
"console=ttyS0" on the xenlinux command line.

Can you post the grub config and all the serial output.

Thanks,
Ian


I have tried the sysreq option, where sysreq p gives:

PID: 1, comm            init
EIP: 0819[<00ae870>] CPU: 0 EFLAGS: 00201217 Not tainted


the last Bootlines gives:
