Hello all.

I just configured Linux to work with Xen, as my dom0 OS. I installed NetBSD in
another partition, wrote a config file and tryed to create the virtual
machine, but I received an error:

# xm create -c /etc/xen/mist
Using config file "/etc/xen/mist".
Error: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'xc_dom_compat_check: guest type xen-3.0-x86_32
not supported by xen kernel, sorry\n')

The configuration file for this machine is:

# $Id$

kernel = "/boot/netbsd-XEN3_DOMU"
memory = 832
name = "mist"
vif = [ 'mac=aa:00:00:00:00:11']
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/sda2,sd0a,w' ]
root = "/dev/sd0a" # only for NetBSD

The kernel is the default netbsd-XEN3_DOMU kernel that comes with the NetBSD
4.0 release.

Does anybody know anything? Thank you very much.
