2024-03-21xen: use bzImage for boot (instead of vmlinux)Bruce Ashfield
Testing with the latest oe-core was unable to boot and only syslinux was running. It appears that the desired kernel is not on the /boot partition, and hence the system can't continue. bzImage is installed and available, so we switch to that. We also ensure that both kernel-vmlinux and kernel-image are installed to the rootfs so we can have choices in the future. Signed-off-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@gmail.com>
2021-09-02xen-image-minimal: supply bootloader config for qemux86-64 machineChristopher Clark
Add a dedicated bootloader config for the qemux86-64 machine so that the 'pmtmr=0' kernel command line argument can be provided, which removes an error message that otherwise occurs in syslog during boot which is detected by an OEQA test case causing it to fail. A new kickstart file is provided that applies the new bootloader config and it is supplied as an override to WKS_FILE for this image. This is work towards enabling the Xen Test Framework (XTF) in the OEQA testimage framework.
