I then installed Xen from yum. I have the following grub entries: Fedora Linux, with Linux 3.2.10-3.fc16.i686.PAE Fedora Linux, with Linux 3.2.10-3.fc16.i686.PAE (recovery mode) Xen 4.1 Xen 4.1.2 Xen syms-4.1.2 Xen xen When I boot the baremetal kernel entries I get prompted for the encrypted disk password and the machine boots fine (no Xen). When I boot from any of the Xen entries I do not get prompted for the encrypted disk password and get an immediate kernel panic. How do I boot Xen kernel from encrypted filesystem on my laptop?
