Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] Re: logs attached. Re: [Xen-users] Can not findthe cdrom device in /dev/ afterbooted into xen(3.0.3)
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.2.5.060620
Looks like the I/O ports are allocated correctly to the device in both cases
(both Xen and native). So I have no idea why the IDE PCI probing code isn't
picking up on this. At this point I'd be adding tracing to the two kernels
to find out where their probing paths diverge.
