Have rebuilt Ubuntu's xen package for wheezy. The results are available for testing. https://people.debian.org/~bam/wheezy/xen/ The most significant change I had to remove the tools-firmware-etherboot-fix-e1000.patch file because Debian wheezy doesn't have the 8086100e.rom but it does have the e1000_82540.rom file. ---- cut ---- UBUNTU: Fix pxe boot with e1000 emulation This seems to be a slight revert as the same rom name has been used before. The main problem is that ipxe builds the e1000_82540.rom with invalid pci id in the rom header. Which is required by the hvmloader. The 8086100e.rom is just the same but with a name the build engine can cope with.
