Are there any plans for Xen kernel debs? That's where I was having the 
problems-- the packages installed fine but the kernel still didn't work 
as expected.
Mark Williamson and I have been writing back and forth for about a week 
trying to figure out WHY it's not working, so if you have any insight 
you might be able to provide, I can send you the thread or start cc'ing 
you if you want. Mark mentioned the possibility of getting a Debian guru 
in on the conversation.
Or if there are any specific Debian instructions for compiling the xen0 
kernel that you could provide, that might help a lot!
The BASIC problems were that I couldn't get a fat partition on hdb to 
mount, and alsa wouldn't work. But it goes a bit deeper than that, and 
I'll explain more if you decide you have any time and would like to help.
Thanks a million!
Travis
