Bug Description

I have been trying the Xen paravirt kernel on ec2 however I have not been succesful due to the following reasons:

- Amazon runs an old version of Xen (3.0.2/3.0.3/3.0.4) which Xen paravirt is not backwards compatible.
- Unable to grab an oops messagesince the kernel crashes before appearing on the console, due to the way that the amazon tools work.

The solution as painful for me to say this is to use the forward port from XenSource kernel (2.6.18). If you have any questions please let me know.

Regards
chuck
