The following might be the one you're missing: CONFIG_XEN_KEYBOARD=3Dy It is in my config, but not in yours. > I also tried your .config ( make oldconfig && make menuconfig && > genkernel --oldconfig bzImage && genkernel --oldconfig initramfs ), > and something strange happened: > > The VM seems to be starting... then ended immediately. But no error > message at all. Could have a few reasons: - I have the "compatibility" for xen reduced to 3.4 or higher. Not sure which xen-version is included in yours. - I do not have support for an initramfs or similar in there - I specified the CPU-type in the kernel (It's not a generic one) Did you check the logs for xend, system (messages) and others? >>>> Please note, I do use the following kernel: >>>> sys-kernel/xen-sources-2.6.34-r4 >>>> >>>> Which kernel are you using? >>>> >>> >>> hardened-sources-2.6.36-r9 IIRC >>> >>> Hmmmm... there are *lots* of options in your config that I don't see = in >>> mine. >> >> Can you add a list of the ones you are missing? >> > > Um... lots.
