Amazing: I removed "rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;" from the beginning of the xen entry in /boot.cfg and instead of getting (XEN) *** Building a PV Dom0 *** (XEN) ELF: not an ELF binary (XEN) (XEN) **************************************** (XEN) Panic on CPU 0: (XEN) Could not construct domain 0 (XEN) **************************************** I got (XEN) Dom0 has maximum 1128 PIRQs (XEN) *** Building a PV Dom0 *** (XEN) ELF: phdr: paddr=0xffffffff80200000 memsz=0xe07000 (XEN) ELF: memory: 0xffffffff80200000 -> 0xffffffff81007000 (XEN) ELF: note: GUEST_OS = "NetBSD" (XEN) ELF: note: GUEST_VERSION = "4.99" (XEN) ELF: note: XEN_VERSION = "xen-3.0" ... !
