Kernel 2.6.26 are designed for Xen 3, and 2.6.32 are for Xen 4. I'm not really surprised with the result you have here, and I don't think you can expect to have it fixed. Why don't you simply use kernel 2.6.32 for your Lenny VMs? It does work well, even with a Lenny userland. Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
