Hi Andy,
Can you try to change the xen parameter 'iommu' to 0?
If with iommu=0 you can boot Xen fine, that may be due to a known BIOS bug and
you can use xen with c/s >=19270 and use "iommu=1 iommu_inclusive_mapping=1".
Thanks,
-- Dexuan

This is not a build issue, the same xen-3.4-unstable.gz + grub stanza
works ok on my Dell Optiplex 755, but on my Supermicro X7DWA-N it
locks up at (XEN) *** LOADING DOMAIN 0 ***
title Xen 3.4 / Linux 2.6.29-suse
root (hd0,0)
kernel /xen.gz iommu=1 com1=115200,8n1 console=vga,com1 noirqbalance
watchdog dom0_vcpus_pin
module /vmlinuz-2.6.29-xen root=/dev/sda2 swiotlb=256 console=xvc0 console=tty1
