Running NetBSD as PV under XCP-NG v.8.0...

[Chavdar Ivanov <ci4ic4%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hi,

Under XCP-NG 7.6 and earlier, as well as under Citrx XenServer, I used
to run a few NeetBSD systems in PV mode, just by setting PV-kernel
parameter to a locally copied XEN3_DOMU kernel and clearing
HVM-boot-policy parameter.

I upgraded my XCP-NG host today to the recently released 8.0 version;
this no longer works now. Perhaps I am missing some other parameter,
now I am getting:
...

I am wondering whether to revert to 7.6 or just recreate by NetBSD
hosts  as HVM guests...
