Hmm, is there any other driver sharing the interrupt vector with the e1000g device? Run mdb -k and have a look at the ::interrupts output, when not booted under xVM and with the BIOS PnP setting reverted: echo ::interrupts | mdb -k echo ::interrupts -d | mdb -k Maybe e1000g is sharing the interrupt vector with another piece of hardware, and that other hardware has a pending interrupt during xVM dom0 boot. e1000g driver is the first driver that is loaded, installs it's interrupt handler, the vector is unmasked, and we immediatelly get interrupts on that vector, but they are not from e1000g. There's no driver to clear the interrupt condition => the system hangs. My Tecra S1 had such an issue with the ehci and ipw drivers 6353812 "ipw driver must disable interrupts at shutdown; tecra s1 hangs on reboot" http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6353812 > I also > changed a Virtualization enabled/disabled setting which I did not see > before. That would seem to be important for xVM. :) Yes, probable helps with HVM domUs... > The NVidia driver is working just fine as well. > > Let me go through the matrix to see what we can figure out.
