And this bug.. http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=252

We have been trying to locate the changeset where this occurs for the first time. As we roll back through the changesets, we find that even changesets that had worked earlier (like 6654) are failing with an alignment check in Xen at the same place.

Could hg update could be messing up? Other than the boot message (which shows the appropriate changeset), is there another way of telling? Is there another way of rolling back to an older changeset other than hg update?

Thanks Raj

PS. Here's the script we use to update.

#!/bin/bash echo Removing xen-unstable.hg... rm -rf xen-unstable.hg hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg cd xen-unstable.hg echo Moving to changeset $1 hg update $1 echo Continue? Ctrl-C to break / Enter to continue read a patch -p1 < ~/xen/rules.diff make -j4 world ~/xen/xen-unstable.hg/install.sh sync reboot
