XCP i thought has ext4 and grub2 support.

There is two source of problems:

1) ext4 (use ext3)
2) grub2 (during debian installation switch to expert mode and select 'grub-legacy' to be used).

Something about pygrub, so indeed i think it's a grub2 issue.
I would love to submit a patch but i wouldn't know how to do that/help with that.

The only thing i can do is help testing.. and that's what i'm doing ;-)!

Yeah i know that, and i know how to fix it on a upgraded Debian 5 to 6 (just remove the menu.lst)
But this means you can never install a Debian 6 from template :-)?

So i successfully upgraded my Debian vm's to Debian 6 on XCP 1.0, but when i try to install a new clean one it always fails.
Why is this? The VM won't even start, while i used the Debian 6 squeeze template.

Is this even possible?

Thanks,

Peter
