Here we go...

Grub config used to boot:

title XEN pv_ops dom0 with serial console
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/xen-3.4-unstable.gz dom0_mem=256M loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all
com1=9600,8n1 console=com1
module /boot/bzImage-2.6.29-rc6-tip ro root=LABEL=ROOT console=hvc0
earlyprintk=xen 4
module
 /boot/init.rd-2.6.29-rc6-tip

Did a boot test on 3.4-unstable tip and 3.3.1 with dom0-loader-bzImage patch.
Logs attached.

Xen and dom0 kernel are freshly pulled and build from a clean tree. Kernel
config attached. Xen was build with this command after hg clone: make
KERNELS='' dist

After xen hands over the console to dom0 the screen stays blank...

I'll do another tests and boot dom0 with console=ttyS0,9600n8 maybe we get
outputs from the kernel itself then.

;o) and watched them with the screen utility and there are quite a few
 repeating
backtraces before the whole box stops responding. I'll do another run (after
pulling and building Jeremys remaining changes in) and catch the backtraces into
log files over the the next few hours to post them here.
