during JST night.
Thank you for the investigation.
Since no one complains about this, the problem (XenPPC does not boot with
SMP) seems to be my local problem.
I am afraid that I did some trivial mistake in setting up my JS20 blade.

Amos, I tried, but it failed on my JS20 at the same point. I attach the
boot log.
(The message mpic.c is added by me to check that the modified
version is actually used.)

Is there any workaround to boot the new image from local disk?

I think this is related to the boot wrapper removal.

I just returned home.
I will answer as much as possible although my remote environment is poor.

AFAIK, the internal version is Xen with the SMP patch that has been
sent to this list,
Is there more?
This inernal version is maintained
I took a look at the situation. It boils down to this:
1. In the internal Xen tree, there is a bug (my fault) in which
firmware bootargs are overridden by the builtin xen bootarg. This
is fixed (by Hollis) in the current public Xen tree.
Thanks, I just checked it.
2. In the
through the /etc/yaboot.conf like this.
# header section
partition = 2
timeout = 600
default = xen
# image section
image = /boot/vmlinux
label = linux
root = /dev/hda3
append = quiet sysrq=1 insmod=sym53c8xx
It probably is, which image do you copy for yaboot to use?
I usually copied xen/xen to /boot/xen-3.0-unstable, and specified it in
yaboot.conf.
can you try:
$ objcopy -S xen/xen-syms xen/xen.yaboot
and have yaboot load xen.yaboot
I tried, but the situation is same.
Welcome to yaboot
Kawachiya-san,
Please try the following patch against the yaboot boot.
I rebuilt xen with the patches, and tried to boot with xen/xen, but the
situation was same.

Do we really need yaboot? (Just looking for a workaround...)
Kawachiya cannot netboot for political reasons in his lab, so he
actually installs Xen on his Local Disk.
We should certainly support this booting model and so he is sorta
stuck with a bootloader and yaboot is what we are all
Could you synchronize the console here, there are two ways to do this:
1) add sync_console to the cmdline _before_ --
2) apply the follow diff
Do you have output for this?
I did this with 1), and this is the log.
