Hi all!I'm using xen on gentoo with grub2 and seems there is and issue with default xen detection mechanism because it also adds menu entries for all xen symlinks in boot and for xen-syms [see grub.cfg.unpatched] that shouldn't happen. Contents of my boot directory is
x201 ~ # ls -l /boot total 30020-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2549447 Apr 2 18:03 System.map-genkernel-x86_64-2.6.38-gentoo-r1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2574345 Apr 3 01:53 System.map-genkernel-x86_64-2.6.39-rc1-gentoo
