Hey All -

Attempting to follow the directions over at : http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/FreeBSD_Dom0

I’ve confirmed the hard way, not all the bits in the pvh_dom0_v8 -head copy of FreeBSD have been merged into freebsd-head, so running with a working kernel from the repo over at xenbits.  However, I’m getting a panic in the AcpiNsWalkNamespace when the Dom0 is booting.  I’m willing and have time to do some testing and poking.  And suggestions or pointers at what to look at next ?

Hardware is:

	Supermicro X8STi
	Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU  E5620  @ 2.40GHz

Panic is:


	Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
	cpuid = 0; apic id = 00
	fault virtual address	= 0x18
	fault code		= supervisor read data, page not present
