Package: xen-hypervisor-common Version: 4.14.1+11-gb0b734a8b3-1 Severity: important
Installing xen-system-armhf in a test vm and running update-grub left me with a grub configuration that cannot boot the xen hypervisor and gets stuck in the grub menu. It's still possible to boot the normal linux kernel after manual selection. Grub outputs the following error: Loading Xen 4.14-armhf ... error: can't find command `multiboot'. Loading Linux 5.10.0-7-armmp-lpae ... error: can't find command `module'. Loading initial ramdisk ... error: can't find command `module'. Press any key to continue... The problem is that the /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen file from the grub-common package generates a multiboot line for the xen hypervisor but there is no multiboot module available for grub on armhf. I did a bit research but could not come up with a way to boot the xen hypervisor from grub on armhf, maybe somebody has more knowledge here. This may be a bug in 20_linux_xen, but only installing xen-hypervisor-common causes a not working grub configuration to be generated, so I'm filing this against this package now. Feel free to reassign.
