[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#783346: patch for booting Jessie domU with wheezy dom0

[Daniel Pocock]

Package: xen-utils-4.1
Version: 4.1.4-3+deb7u4
Severity: serious
Tags: patch

dom0 running wheezy

domU upgraded from wheezy to jessie.  The domU doesn't boot any more,
errors:

Error code: Using <class 'grub.GrubConf.Grub2ConfigFile'> to parse
/grub/grub.cfg
Error parameters: Traceback (most recent call last):,   File
"/usr/lib/xcp/lib/pygrub.xcp", line 853, in <module>,     raise
RuntimeError, "Unable to find partition containing kernel",
RuntimeError: Unable to find partition containing kernel,


The attached one-line patch to dom0
/usr/lib/xen-4.1/lib/python/grub/GrubConf.py fixes the issue


This should probably be released in an update to wheezy.
