Wow, it really does make a difference when we can see the configuration! |

Actually you are not using savedefault like I was assuming. Which |
| 30 |
basically means fallback only works when grub fails to load the kernel. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
You said you followed the "HOWTO Xen and Gentoo" but looks like you |
| 33 |
ignored section 6 on configuring the boot loader. It should look more |
| 34 |
like this: |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
title Gentoo Linux 2.6.16-gentoo_xen_dom0 |
| 37 |
root (hd0,0) |
| 38 |
kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=98M |
| 39 |
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-gentoo-r8 ro root=/dev/sda2 |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Likely the dom0 kernel is failing because it expects to be run within |
| 42 |
the hypervisor. You need to load that first as in the above. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Hope this helps. |
