[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

RHEL 5.5 has been released, and it contains many Xen related fixes.

Here's the most important of the them.. fixing a dom0 caching bug which 
could cause domU disk corruption when the domU disk was accessed from dom0 
after the domU was shutdown. Most people noticed this bug when pygrub
used wrong (cached) information.

"pygrub uses cached and eventually outdated grub.conf, kernel and initrd":
