In any case, highmem should now work on 2.6. Re the 3ware problems: Could you build a 2.6 dom0 kernel with #define TW_DEBUG added before the dprintk macro gets defined around line 248 (the file is linux-2.6.7-xen0/drivers/scsi/3w-xxxx.h), like this: #define TW_DEBUG 1 #ifdef TW_DEBUG #define dprintk(msg...) printk(msg) #else #define dprintk(msg...) do { } while(0) #endif Also, does the boot get to the point where it prints a line like: Found a 3ware Storage Controller... I couldn't find a mail from you which included dmesg output of a failed 2.6 boot, please include all the output from Xen and from dom0 when you boot with TW_DEBUG enabled. christian ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285
