Subject: ext4 support on pvgrub
Date: Thu, 7 Oct 2010 22:48:04 +0100 (BST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.00.1010072238110.13579@vega1.dur.ac.uk> (raw)

I have this working on Fedora. It turned out to be very easy to add this 
as I simply took the grub-ext4-support.patch from the Fedora grub package 
and put it in xen-4.0.1/stubdom/grub.patches/ . Using pvgrub (without a 
vif on the virtual machine as I was having problems if I did give it a 
network interface) I could read and boot from ext4 partition with this 
patch but not without it.

Is this a good way to add this feature to xen more generally?
