Stuck on booting DOM0, Ubuntu 20.04, integrated AMD GPU. Xen 4.14
Greetings,

I'm fairly new to Xen and recently I've been trying to get my AMD laptop
to run Xen with no success.
Normally this would be the point where I would look at the boot logs,
but the boot got stuck before the filesystem was mounted so there are no
logs.

With of exception of the last few lines which I could read from the console.
It always stops at:
"shpchp: Standard Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver version: 0.4"
Booting normally it continues with vesafb.
"kernel: vesafb: mode is 1920x1080x32, linelength=7680, pages=0"

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700
GPU: Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx ( Integrated )

Sincerly,
Thomas Dijkstra

Are you certain boot actually hangs and doesn't continue happily without any
working display?

Can you "ping" the machine from a different system? And can you, after a
while, connect via SSH? (And is this service enabled).

What are your boot-options for Xen and the kernel?
