Xen PV drivers for FreeBSD

[Yuriy Kohut]

Hi,

I have just built XENHVM from RELANG_8_1.
DomU boot stop just after CDROM was detected in kernel:
----
acd0: CDROM <QEMU DVD-ROM/0.10.2> at ata1-slave WDMA2
----

Boot doesn't continue for a long time, Xen shows VM is blocked:
# xm list freebsd-8.1
Name                                        ID   Mem VCPUs      State   Time(s)
freebsd-8.1                                346  1024     1     -b----    113.3


By the other side, GENERIC worked just fine for me.

Could somebody please assist ...
