Wow, it really does make a difference when we can see the configuration!
Actually you are not using savedefault like I was assuming. Which
basically means fallback only works when grub fails to load the kernel.
ya, and that is the behavior I want. I know about the savedefault
feature but I doesn't need it in my case.
You said you followed the "HOWTO Xen and Gentoo" but looks like you
ignored section 6 on configuring the boot loader. It should look more
like this:
title Gentoo Linux 2.6.16-gentoo_xen_dom0
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=98M
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-gentoo-r8 ro root=/dev/sda2
Likely the dom0 kernel is failing because it expects to be run within
the hypervisor. You need to load that first as in the above.
Hope this helps.
True !!!
Due to lots of changes I made from the start, I forgot in the end the
hypervisor itself !!!
Of course it will help ;o)
