Hello!

In an attempt to finally get a recent Xen dom0 kernel booted on this
pesky amd64 system (see
<http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2009-10/msg00485.html>
for the (short) story), I wanted to give this one one a try:

I applied the patch, built the kernel, but it'll crash / reset the system
in the middle of the booting process.  The last thing I can see are some
``NET:'' messages.  How to help debugging this?  Marco, should I perhaps
give your binary packages a try?


Bastian, is any of your Xen dom0 work available somewhere?


Regards,
 Thomas
