This is Bugzilla bug #145. All the rest of the tests fail with a message like: > FAIL: 03_memset_random_pos Console didn't respond This is because the crashing DomU from the 04_memset_smallmem_pos test is stuck in an endless console-spew mode, which seems to cause a DoS effect on the console system for all other domains. -- Dan Smith IBM Linux Technology Center Open Hypervisor Team email: danms@us.ibm.com
