Package: linux-image-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64/xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64/udev
Version: 2.6.32-5/4.0.1-rc5/160
The curent Squeeze Xen versions do not work with the current Squeeze udev version. Paravirtualised guests do not autostart. In other words, after creating DomUs with xen-create-image and xm create, if you reboot Dom0, all DomUs will crash and consume maximum CPU time due to known Xen bug #1612.
This is a significant limitation, since a system will never automatically reboot to its previous state.
According to Xen bug #1612, one solution would be to significantly upgrade to a newer kernel version, or to otherwise path the kernel accordingly. The other solution would be to revert back to udev 151.
See http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1612 for reference.
Thank you for all the work you do!

Yes, or a later version.
