Thanks for your report(s). Sorry to let you wait without reply for some time. Unfortunately booting Xen/dom0 with EFI is not something that is very well tested in Debian. One of the reasons for this is simply that none of the package maintainers is using EFI. For these kind of cases, we rely on users who encounter the problem and who have the ability/skills/etc to help debugging the problem. I suspect the problem is caused by some intricacies concerning interaction between grub, xen, etc. There are some other reports on the upstream xen-users mailing list about this, but to be honest I have no idea if those are related. The problems might or might not be specific to Debian, I don't know. I'm available to facilitate the process, for example by creating new packages with a specific patch to test, but unfortunately I don't have spare hardware and time to try reproduce the problems myself and dig deep into it. Thanks, Hans van Kranenburg
