I download this, however what I didnt appreciate is that Instead of
just doing the "make world" to get to be able to change the XenU you
need to do a "make dist" cd into the xenU dir and the do a make
menuconfig ARCH=xen, make the appropriate changed then cd..

do a make dist and the a make install, and hey presto the sucker worked.

thanks for bearing with me, but I just needed the instructions,
understand came after that.

Thanks
