Hi, Aron
We have tried to boot xen with your tip, but found the configuration
for domain0 opens dom0_VP mode, however, the dom0_VP option of xen was closed
by default. Maybe this is the main reason why xen dies at booting xen0.
Correct?
If they don't match, it is impossible to boot up.
Serial can be disabled by a simple change:

Hi all,
I have
done kernel build with dom0_vp mode open to compare with it close. The specific
data as following:
Environment :
Memory:768M
Platform : tiger4
Cpu : Montecito C1 stepping
Compile cmdline : time make /dev/null 21
Configuration file : @arch/ia64/config/tiger_defconfig
Hi,
this patch creates a new file: cpuhotplug.c. The content is the xenbus
handler part of smpboot.c. The purpose is to be able to share this part with
other architectures.
Tested by compiling on i386.
Tristan.

Hi, Aron
Which distro do you use on your rpmbuild system?
Fedora5-ia64? or RHEL4?
Cannot we completely make fedora-xen-ia64 yet?
I had the following error. Did I have mistakes?

I`m yet trying to install xen on my Debian Sarge 3.1/ia64!
So, I`m trying to install using the ./install.sh but I think that it isn`t possible on the unstable version, am I correct?

Yes, that's bad which may be the reason why xen/x86 disables serial
