I'm trying to boot 2.6.24 as a paravirt guest. I'm using all the config selections you describe. I've done all this, from the day "Xen" support landed up until 2.6.24 release. I've never gotten it to boot, not once. These days (2.6.24), I get it starting, but it can never mount /dev/root. I tried the 0x20201/xvda1 trick, but that doesn't help either. I've often wondered - which file should I be using from my build? arch/x86/boot/bzImage? ./vmlinux? I really would appreciate any help - I'm currently stuck with HVM when it comes to mainline kernel, and that's slow.
