The devices all exist, I'm using the same root for dom0 as I am for the regular
system boot, just changing the kernel from a standard one to a Xen setup.

Running Debian 3.1 here.

The system isn't getting to INIT, it's stopping just prior to mounting the root
filesystem. It's odd too that at this kjournald stage, it hangs as if it's
waiting on something, it's not like the box locks up or anything -- it still
passes the "caps lock test."
More reading in the archives... So this is a 64-bit install of Debian and all of
my compiling's been done on this box -- could that be the problem?
