Thanks for the reply. I am not sure why but I experienced following
after the first send-pr. I also cannot reproduce the xen.gz issue on
another machine that can read .gz file correctly whenever. :(
1. grub-nb6 command doesn't recognize both xen.gz and xen (ungzipped).
2. actual grub-nb6 boot loader CAN recognize xen but not xen.gz.
3. grub-nb5 boot loader recognize xen but not xen.gz
4. grub-nb5 boot loader on ANOTHER MACHINE recognize both xen.gz and xen.
I guess grub-nb6 boot loader will recognize both too on this machine.
I used following programs.
- grub-nb5
- grub-nb6
- xenkernel30-3.0.3
- xentools30-3.0.3
Are there any other packages related to this issue?
Thanks,
