Title:
pygrub on 12.04 don't start 14.04
To manage noti
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
As far as I understand, Xen's use of pygrub means that it must
understand what grub is doing, and thus this is not a bug in grub, but
in Xen and/or pygrub only. If behaviour in 14.04's grub has changed,
then it is
Hello Robie,
I think so. pygrub should understand the 14.04 grub menu, so pygrub on
12.04 needs to be fixed. Thats why I first wort this bug against XEN. I
don't konw why it was changed to grub by somebody.
Have a nice day.

To boot pv domUs with newer grub pvgrub2 is needed, I'm using for a few months
a custom build from source, Trusty have it in official repository:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/grub-xen
Even if I not tested official debian/ubuntu now and from a quick look I do not
saw where is the file to pas
Hello Fantu,
thanks for this hint. It's gr8 that trusty (Ubuntu 14.04) installes the
pygrub2 package, so it should be possible to start a 14.04 pv domU on a
14.04 dom0. I also did not test this.
But thats not a solution for thoose who run the dom0 on 12.04 and want
to use a 14.04 pv domU now. So
These are details for build custom pvgrub2 image I did:
aptitude install autogen libdevmapper-dev libfuse-dev unifont # some are
optionals but useful (other requirements if I am not mistaken are included in
the preparation of xen and qemu from source)
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/grub.git
./au
I also confirm that I can't boot any 14.04 LTS domU on Ubuntu 12.04 or
Debian Wheezy dom0s with the pygrub available in those repositories.
Hopefully 12.04 and wheezy both get pygrub updates to support 14.04
domUs.

A backport[0] or SRU[1] is probably suitable here (I'm not sure which).
Volunteers welcome. For a first step, we need to understand what version
of pygrub is needed, or what patch needs to be backported.
