  • Ticket #273 – Description

    v7 v8  
    33* Fedora switched to GPT partition tables by default; turn it off by passing kernel flag 'nogpt'. This is uncommitted on c-o. Ideally, we should just forgo partition tables altogether, which Mitch claims is not too difficult to do, but which I haven't figured out how yet.

    5 * Xen needs this patch series http://old-list-archives.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-10/msg01404.html unfortunately they haven't been backported to Xen 4.0 or Xen 4.1 yet. (We specifically need only patches 2, 4 and 5). Otherwise you won't be able to boot because the bootloader returns no data. Currently c-o has had its pygrub manually patched with these two patches; we should talk to backports or package up these changes ourselves. The idea is to just install another pygrub, and then ask Xen to use it instead.
