Agreed, we shouldn't support arbitrary dom0s, but it would be nice to have one
supported way to run dom0 in debian, be it etch or lenny... If we say "run dom0
in etch" at least can we have the limited etch needed for a dom0 to work blessed
with an extended support, if not support 2.6.18 in lenny?

Thanks,

Guido
