Some people like me are seeing:

(boottime)


I'm trying to figure out if this is related to GCC4 or if there is some other voodoo going on. I did the usual mrproper thing, but I am unable to get a stable working kernel (even when the kernel only contains block tap).

Any other solutions for Xen on 64bit, with 32GB of RAM are appreciated.

Reproducible: Always

(Now I might need a 3.4.6 xen.gz, but I'm working on that)

It is clearly a problem with ANY gcc 4.2+ version.

Rest of the issues are 'missing keyboard chips' in combination with 'many GBs of RAM'.

Dropped version. Try .29 or .31 :)
