Unfortunately neither FreeBSD 7.3 nor 8.0 will even boot, and are stopping with panic: vm_fault: fault on nofault entry, addr: c32ef000 after printing real and avaliable memory. After reading the archives of this list, this seems to be a common problem, which /may/ be solved by building a custom kernel. So i figure, that i have to check out the sources for FreeBSD 8 (RELENG_8) and build a new Kernel with the configuration from /usr/src/ sys/i386/conf/XEN. Is the result sufficient or do i have to do more than that? Any advise would be appreciated.

After a litte digging i also found the configuration for a XENHVM- Kernel: /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/XENHVM Is this one maybe worth a try?

Also, it will require some slight changes to the config file. Specifically, the line "vif = [ 'type=ioemu,bridge=eth0' ]" from the config file I posted earlier would have to be changed to "vif = [ 'bridge=eth0' ]", because you aren't emulating an re NIC any longer. The XENHVM kernel is an HVM style kernel but it loads paravirtualized NIC drivers (same with the block devices as well). Who is your provider that is using 3.3.1?
