Bug#705124: [Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#705124: downgrading, we would like to upgrade our developers to Testing. However, this bug prevents us from doing so, and would prevent us from migrating to 7.0 when it becomes released. Pretty critical to the system's stability.

Hi,

Could you please avoid writing a 1km long subject line, and write in the
body of your message? I'm putting your subject line again here, for move
visibility:

> downgrading, we would like to upgrade our developers to Testing.

If I didn't know Chinese and lived in China for nearly 7 years now, I'd
say that the above is Chinese. Though, I'd say it is hebrew to me (since
I don't know Hebrew).

In other words: could you rephrase?

We do understand that this bug is a problem for you. We all would like
it to be solved. However, just saying that it is a big problem for you
doesn't help. Please provide the output of lspci and dmidecode as I
asked, so that we have a clue of what kind of hardware you are using.

Also, I'm surprised that you are talking about problems with Debian 7,
when your kernel log shows:

Linux version 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 (Debian 2.6.32-48squeeze1)

Maybe you could try just *running* the kernel 3.2, and not just try to
upgrade your domU? Normally, this only needs you to edit the Xen domU
startup file, to point at the correct kernel. You can do that without
upgrading, even picking-up the kernel files from another machine!
