Package: grub
Version: 0.97-20
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
xen's pygrub allows booting a xen domU using a kernel loaded from inside
that domU's disk. It looks at the domU's /boot/grub/menu.lst file, and
displays a grub-like list of kernels. For this to work though, the
menu.lst should include xen kernels, and exclude non-xen kernels, which
is the opposite of what update-grub puts in there now.
I've attached a patch that makes update-grub smart about this. If the
system is a dom0, or not a xen system, it behaves as before, excluding
the xen kernels from menu.lst. If the system is a domU, it includes only
xen kernels.
I've tested this patch on all three system types, and several kernel
versions, and it seems to work well.
