Package: xen-hypervisor-4.4-amd64
Version: 4.4.1-9
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

I was running Debian Wheezy (amd64) and xen-hypervisor 4.1 on a Dell
PowerEdge
R720.
Xen was working fine.
Xen was configured with LVM

Now, I'm trying Debian Jessie (amd64) and I have a strange problem.

After booting, Xen seems to be working : /etc/init.d/xen status

● xen.service - LSB: Xen daemons
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/xen)

When I try to run a simple 'xl list' : I got this in console :

root@jango:~# xl list
Name                                        ID   Mem VCPUs      State
Time(s)

The cursor is blinking, nothing happens.
I have not touched any config files yet.
(/etc/xen contains default config files).

/var/log/xen is empty.

In /var/log/syslog, I got this :

I tried with xen-hypervisor 4.5 with no luck.
I tried with linux-image-4.xxxx from unstable with no luck.

Unfortunatly, this server is not a test server, so I'll have to reinstall
wheezy.

Have you any clue about this problem ?

Is there anything I can test to debug this ?

Thanks a lot.

Benoit
