Do you run a Linux? Let's face it, you need help

I have aready installed all the componant you specified also used grub2 to use xen kernel, after booting the server using the xen kernel, I stucked with following error

##error: You need to load the multiboot kernel first

After that I have done customized entries for multiboot but not able to fix the issue

Do you think the Kernel compilation with Xen is better approch for this ?
