xen vps issue loading disk?

[Henrik Hudson]

Hey Stable,

I recently setup a Xen VPS running FreeBSD and the system came with
8.0-REL-p2 on it. I rebuilt world and then kernel using a 100%
stock GENERIC i386. after installkernel and reboot the system
stops at "trying to load disk: /dev/ad0s1a" (or similar; i forget
the exact device node at the moment). I'm able to reset and boot
kernel.old fine.

Did I miss something or is there a regression somewhere?

There is a predefined kernel configuration file for Xen: XEN. You might try
building that.

... unless you're on an amd64 platform, when it's XENHVM.

% find /usr/src/sys -name '*XEN*'
/usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/XENHVM
/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/XEN

Cheers,

Matthew
