RE: [Xen-devel] Daily Xen Build

David,

I am able to boot Xen and Dom0 on my x86_64 Dell and ES7000 box running
SLES9 SP2. When I try to bring up DomUs I run into Bug 176. Only
difference is that now I see a lot of the following messages during the
DomU boot.

xen_net: Initialising virtual ethernet driver.
xen_net (probe_interfaces:1304) >
xen_net (probe_interfaces:1307) > wait_i=0
xen_net (probe_interfaces:1310) > schedule_timeout...
xen_net (probe_interfaces:1307) > wait_i=1
xen_net (probe_interfaces:1310) > schedule_timeout...
xen_net (probe_interfaces:1307) > wait_i=2
