[Bug 973405] Re: Upgrading a XenServer's domU running 11.10 to kernel 3.0.0-17-generic makes the vm unbootable

 

This version is no more supported and is not a 'security' problem; so
does not expect a backport

Title:
  Upgrading a XenServer's domU running 11.10 to kernel 3.0.0-17-generic
  makes the vm unbootable

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi, 
  I run a few Ubuntu 11.10 machines on a XenServer6 hypervisor.
  While I upgrade them, the kernel's package rimains the linux-headers-3.0.0-16-generic and everything goes rigth. 
  When I dist-upgrade the vms, the kernel changes to linux-headers-3.0.0-17-generic and this makes the machine not rebootable. 
  In fact as soon as I reboot the machine I receive a XenServer's error about pygrub unable to find partition containing server.
