Ah, now have xend running, but still need to convert from an xl.cfg file to a xmdomain.cfg...  Having not used xm in years, this will take a while.  The man page does not say how to build an hvm guest.

I did another test and Fedora 19 (x86_64) saved just fine.  So this looks to be bug #30.

If I understand this all, this means that the older linux kernels will fail this way also if a migrate fails and the source guest is restarted.

So, do I continue to get xend working, or just say it is an example of bug #30?
