suse 11 patch1, installed Xen hypervisor having problem boot up xen kernel

Anyone has experience with this? whenever I tried to boot into V1 in the following, it hang.

uname -a

After using yast2 and install “xen” hypervisor, the bootloader show “V1” as label for Xen kernel, if I choose to boot into V1, it will just hang with very little message on screen:

ELILO boot: …

V1
SLES11_SP1
Failsafe

(or a kernel file name: [dev_name:/]path/]kernel_image cmdline options)

ELILO boot: V1
