Glad you provided a link. I was going to put apix_enable=0 in the xen cfg
file. Unfortunately, I went ahead and put in the vhd's /etc/system before I
shutdown, and then found I couldn't boot back up again.
I tried the OI-hipster-gui-20160421 and oi-dev-151a8-live-x86 DVDs with the -
kd procedure on the grub kernel command line. I got a little further with the
boot msgs, but it still panic-ed with a null dereference.
Finally, I was able to boot the vhd with standalone qemu and accel=tcg (no
accel) for some reason, and was able to comment out the apix_enable line in /
etc/system, then tested rebooting with the -kd procedure, with the same
results as the DVDs. I tried with the drives defined as xvd{a,c} and hd{a,c},
with and without the -cpu definition in the xen cfg. (Interestingly enough,
you can't see the debugger prompt with the Xorg progress screen, but the
debugger still accepts input.)
The web page link refers to the Westmere cpu family. I don't know what cpu
family you had success on, but it didn't work for me.
Unless you have any other ideas, I'm giving up for now. Thanx for your help.
