Is there a PR about this?

This is a bug in Grub, not in NetBSD.

The best way solution is IMHO to tecah NetBSD second stage boot loader to load
the Xen hypervisor. Does anybody know what changes would be necessary?

    Kind regards



That'd be great, to avoid grub altogether but in the event that never happens or it's too difficult, hopefully when grub2 matures it will be usable in this scenario. At the least it's in develoment, whereas the existing grub is unmaintained.

Has anyone played with grub2?
