XEN HVM + FreeBSD = BTX Halted?

[kevin]

Hello,

I have been trying to install a FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE or FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE
implementation.

After finally getting the XEN HVM instance to see the boot disk , I am now
seeing "BTX Halted" error messages right when it tries to boot.


I did some research and this is a known issue with FreeBSD / XEN. I'm
curious if anyone has encountered this issue and if there is a workaround
available?

Apparently this problem was reported years ago, however I'm not certain  if
its related, or this is a new issue, or I am not aware of a workaround.


Thanks!
