The base system is openSUSE 10.2, and SuSE has a long habit of building everything as modules and putting the drivers needed for accessing the root filesystem into an initrd. I have fought it for a while but nowadays I'm playing along. So yes, all of ahci, pata_marvell, aic7xxx, jbd, dm_mod, ext3 are in fact modules in initrd. Would it help to try a kernel with some or all of these built in? > Ooh, wait. Do you have an old version of the Xen patches in place, > perhaps? In which place? I installed and successfully ran the Xen packages that came with openSUSE 10.2, so there is a 2.6.18 kernel with SuSE's Xen patches on the machine. But that shouldn't have any influence on the kernel.org kernels I build myself, should it? > Does drivers/block/Makefile have: > > obj-$(CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND) += xen-blkfront.o > > (vs := xen-blkfront.o) It has the "+=" variant. > Could you do a before and after booting with initcall_debug=1? "Before" and "after" meaning with CONFIG_XEN=n and CONFIG_XEN=y, I suppose. The resulting logs are a bit biggish, so I have put them on http://www.phnxsoft.com/~ts/linux/ for download. Let me know if you prefer having them mailed. HTH T. -- Tilman Schmidt E-Mail: [email protected] Bonn, Germany Diese Nachricht besteht zu 100% aus wiederverwerteten Bits.
