[Xen-users] Using pygrub

[Steve Kemp <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  Having recently become aware of pygrub I've started using it.

  In general it works well, adding "bootloader = /path/to/pygrub" in
 the domU configuration and adding a simple menu.lst file to the
 domain's file system works.

  However arguments don't appear to be passed to the kernel.  With
 a menu.lst file such as this:

--
 title Xen 3.0 rescue
 kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16.33-xen root=/dev/sda1 init=/bin/sh
 initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16.33-xen
--

  The system boots and the kernel ignores the "init=/bin/sh" argument
 completely.  Looking over the code I see mention of "args" but it 
 doesn't look like it is used as I'd expect.  The following fails too:

 args init=/bin/sh

  Is there a simple method of appending kernel arguments using pygrub?
