Anthony,
eip of 0x0 is the right address.
Because the trampoline_Start code is relocated to address 0.
 /* Relocate real-mode trampoline to 0x0. */
 " mov $trampoline_start,%esi \n"
 " xor %edi,%edi \n"
 " mov $trampoline_end,%ecx \n"
 " sub %esi,%ecx \n"
 " rep movsb \n"
Still there is no progress in the emulation. The guest is dying with triple-fault just like before.
Thanks & Regards,

That change was pretty recent so unless it was reverted it should Just Work.

Now I see cr0 is updated after returning from main.
 I enabled the debug log in the xen code now.

It shows cr0 is getting modified. But the eip is still 0x0.
set_cr0 is returning 1 though which should increment eip to the next instruction. I'm a bit perplexed about my eip now and also why your eip is still 0. It should be the instruction following the mov cr0.
