Pavel, patched Grub2 i386 loads Xen Dom0.

Honestly speaking it loads partially.
Now I got new error message
(XEN) elf_init: not an EL binary
...
Panic on CPU 0

I tried Xen 3.2.1 and Xen 3.4.

Unfortunately I do not have right CPU on my testing PC.
I think it's old Pentium without VT support.
Hope to find in google related advices and will try it.

It should be ok. Be sure to have a kernel with dom0 support. My recommendation is a kernel from git

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git 

branch xen-tip/master
With enabled paravirtops

more details on: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenParavirtOps

Also I will try to find something more modern than my old PC to make full test.

Anyway I have to say that previously reported error message (Early fatal page fault) gone in i386.

Thank you.
