Thank you for pointing this out. I was able to install Sid-Xen 
(linux-image-*-xen, xen-tools, xen-utils) on top of a non-Xen Squeeze. Problem 
solved.

Will Squeeze use 2.6.32.21, too?

I believe the fix for this is in the 2.6.32-21 kernel currently present
in Sid.

Bug#594697: Xen 4/Linux 2.6.32-5-xen (Squeeze testing): Bridged PV Guests Crash Upon Autostart

2010-08-28 Thread andre . d
Package: linux-image-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64/xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64/udev
Version: 2.6.32-5/4.0.1-rc5/160

The curent Squeeze Xen versions do not work with the current Squeeze udev 
version. Paravirtualised guests do not autostart. In other words, after 
creating DomUs with xen-create-image and xm create, if you reboot Dom0, all 
DomUs will crash and consume maximum CPU time due to known Xen bug #1612.

This is a significant limitation, since a system will never automatically 
reboot to its previous state.

According to Xen bug #1612, one solution would be to significantly upgrade to a 
newer kernel version, or to otherwise path the kernel accordingly. The other 
solution would be to revert back to udev 151.

See http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1612 for reference.

Thank you for all the work you do!
