I have two machines with identical Dom0's and DomUs, but different
hardware. The Dom0 has a patch which I produced myself based on the "Re:
[Xen-devel] Kernel bug from 3.0 (was phy disks and vifs timing out in
DomU)" thread. The patch calls vmalloc_sync_all after every
alloc_vm_area, and I realise this isn't the best solution, but it
allowed me to move forward.

The patch fixes the problem I had on one machine, so that now the VMs
boot correctly, but I have another system with an identical setup
(identical Dom0 & DomU kernels, identical startup for DomU) and the VM
fails to start. I have attached a copy of the console log from the good
VM and the bad VM.

Anthony.
