Thanks for the help. Minimized clock and maximized vga settings slowed it enough to get an idea of where the kernel is throwing a fault. The kernel boots for quite a while then just after some "cgroup" stuff it mentions a line about L1 cache, a few more lines, then something about "Performance events AMD PMU driver" this is followed by a --cut here-- and the next line says something about enlighten.c This isn't a lot to go on but I hope it points to somewhere recognizable. I can try to localize it more with some help. Thanks again, Mike Wright -- xen mailing list xen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen
