Hi, very new with Xen so am learning as I go.

Have rebuilt binutils to enable i386pep and "ld -V" confirms as such.

I can build xen without error but how should I be passing in the EFI_Vendor
parameter?  I'm currently having to cp the xen-4.2.2.efi from
/usr/lib64/efi/ into my /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu dir.

(Expecting that my EFI_VENDOR parameter should be "EFI/ubuntu".)

Have created a xen-4.2.2.cfg file in /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu right next to the
.efi.  Boot shows its using the .cfg file but I get an error about no Dom0
Kernel could be found.  I'm struggling to find or maybe understand the
documentation/posts on this.  My xen-4.2.2.cfg is as follows...

[global]
default=xen

[xen]
options=console=vga loglvl=all noreboot
kernel=vmlinuz-3.5.0-36-generic ignore_loglevel
ramdisk=initrd-3.5.0-36-generic

I've cp the kernel and ramdisk files into the same location as the
.efi.  Please can someone point me at the right words to
research/advise where I'm going wrong.  Any help apprecaited.

Thanks,

Kelvin
