Bug#903767: Bug#903800: 4.9.110-1 Xen PV boot workaround

2018-07-29 Thread Alexander Dahl 
Hello,

I can confirm both the boot loop with 4.9.110-1 and that the boot loop
is gone with 4.9.110-3 from stretch-proposed-updates.

The package is available via stretch-proposed-updates. Just add that one to 
your sources.list until the next point release or linux security update.

HTH,
Sven
